NDX GroundOps

A real-time aircraft tracking and ground-operations platform for Fixed Base Operators, built across web, iOS, and Android.

Client request

What the client needed.

The client needed a dedicated operational product for FBO teams to track aircraft movements in real time, manage ramp and hangar locations, coordinate arrivals, and keep ground personnel aligned. The platform had to connect ADS-B tracking hardware, interactive mapping, FBO360, configurable operational zones, and native mobile workflows.

Our approach

What we did.

We designed and built NDX GroundOps from scratch as a connected aircraft-operations system. Raspberry Pi devices and SDR receivers collect ADS-B data, backend services process and identify aircraft telemetry, and web and mobile applications give personnel a live operational view of every aircraft and assigned location.

Tracking infrastructure

Aircraft telemetry turned into an operational view.

NDX GroundOps combines physical receivers, aircraft-data processing, identity matching, and map-based workflows so FBO teams can act on a single live picture of their ramp.

Raspberry Pi devices and SDR receivers collect ADS-B signals
Backend services process telemetry and synchronize aircraft information
Registration numbers and ICAO hexadecimal identifiers support aircraft matching
FBO360 exchanges operational data with the GroundOps platform
Socket.IO distributes live positions and status updates across all clients

Ground-team workflows

From arrival to assigned location, managed in real time.

Web and native mobile applications give ground personnel a shared workflow for arrivals, assigned parking, movements, status updates, and operational checks.

Check in arriving aircraft and assign operational locations
Manage ramp and hangar positions directly through the interface
Monitor configurable zones and receive movement alerts
Update arrival, shutdown, and online statuses
Use ground-operation checklists from mobile devices
