Population Density Data API

The Population Density Data API can obtain dynamic information on the population density in a specific area and at a specific time to enable the drone ecosystem to prioritise less crowded areas.

This solution allows for near real-time detection of unexpected crowds of people, enabling the UAS (Unmanned Aerial System) operators to implement the necessary security measures, reduce potential risks and select the safest routes.

What can it be used for?

By integrating the Population Density Data API, it’s possible to access dynamic data, identify the number of people at risk on a given drone route and make early assessments on the ground. It thus keeps the drone ecosystem informed and proactive, enabling it to mitigate potential hazards.

In addition, the Population Density Data API Unified feature guarantees access to the network capabilities of different carriers through a single and standardised interface.

EARLY RISK ANALYSIS

The Population Density Data API provides the option of delimiting a specific route and time to detect the number of people at risk on a given drone route. This allows for dynamic predictions to assess the risks.

SAFER ROUTES

It provides a comprehensive analysis of the flight time, less risky routes and areas to be avoided. It can thus select routes that are safer for the population.

DYNAMIC ALERT SYSTEMS

This API provides advanced capabilities for more seamless detection of unexpected crowds of people. The UAS operators can thus be alerted on the spot and select a more suitable alternative route.

UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT

Thanks to the standardisation of the Population Density Data API, there’s no need for any customised integration for each carrier. This simplifies the development process and streamlines the time to market.

UNIFORM ACCESS TO TELCO CAPACITIES

This standardised API provides unified access to the capabilities of the different telecommunications companies to ensure a consistent and reliable experience, regardless of the carrier.

PROTECTION OF PRIVACY

The Population Density Data API has a robust anonymisation process to guarantee individual privacy. This prevents mobile phones or users from being tracked via network data.

Use cases

Transport & logistics

Drone-based delivery systems

Drones offer a new range of possibilities for the delivery sector, providing new, more efficient and innovative ways of transporting goods. Unmanned aerial vehicles make it possible to reach remote or hard-to-reach locations, thus facilitating the arrival of goods. This is especially useful in emergency situations, for the delivery of medicines, food or other essentials. The Population Density Data API makes it easier for drones to use more suitable routes to deliver packages directly to the indicated location. In addition, their integration optimises delivery times, speeding up the arrival of urgent shipments.

More effective emergency responses

In times of crisis, accessing information on population density can become a crucial tool. From dispatching rescue teams to coordinating relief operations, this type of data allows authorities to make better informed decisions. The Population Density Data API provides dynamic data on the population density in a specific area and time, detecting concentrations of people almost in real time. Authorities can then rely on this information to quickly assess the severity of the situation and allocate resources accordingly. This improves the efficiency of emergency response and mitigates the impact of disasters.

FAQs

The CAMARA Population Density Data API is a standardized API that enables developers with the capability to get dynamic population density data in a specific area for a future date and time.

Unified API Access provides a single, standardized API for accessing telco capabilities across different network operators, simplifying integration for developers.

The Population Density Data API has versatile applications, including supporting sustainable urban planning efforts or aiding the drone ecosystem in ground risk identification, risk assessments, and compliance with SORA regulations.

The standardized Population Density Data API provides uniform access to telco capabilities, equipping businesses and organizations with a powerful tool to ensure drone regulatory conformity, enhancing their ability to navigate complex regulatory environments effectively.

The API empowers users to carry out comprehensive risk evaluations and fulfill SORA standards with the required compliance level, rendering it an essential resource for maintaining regulatory conformity.

The Population Density Data API will help Drone Operators by providing data to identify if the ground risk class for a given drone flight is acceptable for the time of the flight, or an alternative time should be considered to lower the risk. The API will also provide BVLOS flight with the data to meet SORA 2.5 requirements in terms of intrinsic Ground Risk Class (iGRC).

To guarantee the anonymity of data, if the information linked to the cell at the requested time frame does not meet the required level of anonymity, the API will not return any data. This measure safeguards the privacy and confidentiality of individuals by withholding potentially identifiable information, thereby upholding strict data protection standards.

If you seek to retrieve population density data for a future timeframe, simply provide two essential parameters when using the API: the area, depicted as a polygon shape delineating the geographical area of interest, and the desired time interval for the population density data.

On one side, the Population Density Data API not only conforms to regulations by safeguarding anonymity but also, on the other side, plays a crucial role in aiding drone operators to fulfill regulatory standards concerning ground risk assessment and compliance.
