The Certiflight project proposes a new U-space service for the legal certification of tracks generated by UASs and aircrafts flights, through the introduction of a new disruptive EGNSS-IoT digital system. It features a software platform that offers to its customers (UAS Operators, GA Pilots) certified reports of flight tracks and the flight logs of UASs and General Aviation (GA) aircrafts.

For aircrafts and UASs there is no certified component capable of ensuring a position information and trustable enough as evidential value from a legal perspective. The Certiflight project provides a solution thanks a digital EGNSS/IoT device installed on UASs and GA manned aircraft, equipped with an OSNMA Galileo/EGNOS enabled receiver, capable to guarantee the authenticity of their position information.

Tracking information is cyphered for transmission to Certiflight platform in real time and permanently stored to a private Blockchain node, unalterable once stored. Galileo OSNMA service acts as unique global enabler for this service, ensuring the authenticity of positioning data at the origin. The recorded tracks may be useful for enforcement (i.e., sanctions for airspace infringement) as well as for possible accident or incident investigations.
