Use Cases
Security and Border Monitoring With Surveillance Drones in Belgium
Belgium's realities demand persistent border surveillance and interoperable monitoring. Microavia Drone-in-the-Box technology can provide it — with autonomous EO/IR patrols, AI alerts, RTK reporting, and secure multi-agency access.
Belgium sits on the EU’s frontline, dealing with irregular movement, cross-border crime, and hybrid threats. Its hubs need nonstop surveillance, and authorities must secure airspace, counter drones, and safeguard critical infrastructure.
How Microavia’s AI-Driven drones fit these needs:
How Microavia’s AI-Driven drones fit these needs:
- AI-powered monitoring — NVIDIA Jetson Orin detects anomalies and tracks 10+ targets simultaneously, spotting unusual movement, crowd shifts, or unauthorized entry;
- AI classification and instant alerts — onboard AI assigns timestamps, labels, and confidence levels; geofencing enforces no-fly and restricted zones for sensitive government and industrial sites;
- EO/IR multi-sensor coverage —30× zoom, 4.17 MP EO, and thermal imaging detect people up to 792 m and vehicles up to 2,428 m for day/night monitoring of borders, ports, transport hubs, and critical sites;
- RTK-precision geotagging —20 mm accuracy with multi-constellation GNSS provides defensible location data for EU/NATO-aligned reporting and joint ops;
- 98% uptime with persistent autonomous patrols — 60-min endurance, 15 km radius, 2-min robotized battery swap per drone for continuous situational awareness with no operator load;

- inter-agency integration, centralized storage and historical replay —centralized control, API connectivity, and role-based access connect with existing VMS, access control, and command systems.
Belgium’s airports, energy sites, data centers, prisons, and ports need pilot-free, unmanned drones for intrusion detection, alarm verification, and continuous perimeter security. In dense urban and industrial zones, safe, repeatable autonomous flights provide vast coverage, reduce human risk, and optimize operational costs.
