Ineco continues to consolidate its role as a benchmark in innovation and operational safety in the aeronautical sector with its participation in the IRINA project, within the European SESAR programme. A key initiative for the safe integration of Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems (RPAS) into controlled airspace.
The project, driven by SESAR Joint Undertaking, aims to develop solutions that enable manned and unmanned aircraft to coexist in dense traffic environments and critical operations. Within this framework, Ineco is leading the field of operational safety in one of the project packages, ensuring that the safety requirements are robust and guarantee efficient and reliable integration of RPAS. In addition, our company offers its experience in operational safety by contributing to the validation of the project's systems and procedures within two of the joint validation exercises between INDRA and the consortium established by ENAIRE, CRIDA and Ineco. This work is key to ensuring that new technologies meet the security standards necessary for effective and scalable deployment in Europe.
The project is coordinated by EUROCONTROL and involves 10 partners from different European countries. The French air navigation agency (DSNA) has carried out the first real-time simulations (RTS) of the IRINA project at Clermont-Ferrand airport. For their part, Spanish companies are already carrying out the first tests in order to successfully carry out their simulations this coming June in Madrid.
Ineco has incorporated the use of drones as a key tool in its projects and is a founding member of SIAM, the first national cluster dedicated to the promotion and advancement of innovative aerial mobility. The continuous work on the improvement of standards, regulation and development of the U-Space system, both at national and European level, has made our company a benchmark in the sector.
