Closing the Gap: SkyPath Nowcasting Elevates Turbulence Coverage

SkyPath operates the world’s largest turbulence observation network, collecting 9 billion turbulence samples annually from equipped aircraft globally and growing. This comprehensive coverage draws from patented SkyPath observations, ADS-B-derived reports, EDR data, and PIREPs. Yet even with this extensive observational coverage, data voids exist – particularly at high altitudes, on uncommon routes, or during low-traffic periods.
This is the gap SkyPath Nowcasting was designed to close. Using state-of-the-art machine learning that combines observational data with meteorological parameters, it delivers predictive turbulence intelligence up to 12 hours ahead, with over 90% accuracy, ensuring complete coverage even where real-time reports are unavailable.

The Technology Behind the Prediction
The AI-based Nowcasting model is highly sophisticated, using hundreds of parameters to make its predictions. It draws on raw meteorological parameters from models such as Zeus AI, GFS, and HRRR, including wind shear, temperature, wind speed, and pressure. It also incorporates more complex factors such as topography, land cover, climate belts, and thermodynamic potentials.
Importantly, the model covers all types of turbulence and causes, including:
- Clear Air Turbulence (CAT)
- Convective turbulence
- Jet streams
- Synoptic fronts
- Mechanical turbulence (such as mountain waves)
SkyPath utilizes billions of data points to validate and continuously enhance its model. The model also predicts smooth conditions, displayed in a route corridor along a flight’s path.
Where Nowcasting Shines
The Nowcasting prediction model is most valuable in specific scenarios where reported observational data is inherently limited:
1. High Altitudes At very high flight levels, fewer aircraft are actively reporting turbulence. Nowcasting fills this gap, providing reliable turbulence intelligence where observational data is naturally sparse.
2. Uncommon Routes Flights over less-traveled routes, such as transoceanic paths or new domestic routes, often have limited observational data history. Nowcasting ensures comprehensive turbulence awareness, even on these uncommon routes, by leveraging meteorological parameters and predictive modeling.
3. Early Morning Hours During certain times of the day, particularly early morning, there may be lower volumes of commercial air traffic, leading to fewer real-time turbulence observations. The prediction model is invaluable during these hours, offering reliable intelligence when observational crowdsourcing is at its lowest.
While ADS-B data offers valuable real-time observations, Nowcasting goes beyond by actively predicting turbulence in areas, times, and altitudes where reported data is limited. Together, they create a single, comprehensive ride-quality data layer.
By integrating this sophisticated prediction model, SkyPath provides complete and robust turbulence coverage, making air travel safer and more predictable, regardless of the time of day, altitude, or route.

Reliable Positioning, Every Aircraft, Every Flight
SkyPath is designed to work standalone – just your iPad. For most flights, that’s all you need. But we know certain cockpits present GPS challenges. The 787’s window shielding, some business aviation configurations, electronic interference – these can degrade iPad GPS reception.
Position accuracy matters for SkyPath. It’s how we display ownship, send turbulence notifications based on your location and altitude, and ensure your reports reach the network with correct coordinates.
So we built redundancy.
Multiple Position Sources, One Seamless Experience
SkyPath now connects to multiple location sources beyond iPad GPS:
Aircraft systems – Direct integration with FOMAX, Gogo, SATCOM Direct, and Starlink. When available, we pull the same avionics-grade position data your flight systems use.
Automatic positioning via WiFi – When connected to onboard WiFi, SkyPath can determine your aircraft’s position automatically. No input required – your ownship simply appears.
No configuration. No pilot action. The app detects available sources automatically and uses the best one. You won’t notice the switch – everything just works.
Why This Matters
For most operations, iPad GPS is perfectly reliable. But for aircraft where cockpit design or connectivity conditions affect GPS reception, SkyPath now maintains full capability:
- Ownship display – always accurate
- Turbulence notifications – based on real position and altitude
- Reporting – your observations reach the network with correct location
For airlines with connected aircraft infrastructure (Starlink, Gogo, FOMAX, SATCOM Direct), this extends the value of what you’ve already deployed. No new hardware. No workflow changes.
Built for Every Environment
SkyPath works standalone by design – that’s a strength. But reliability across all aircraft types and configurations matters. With aircraft location services and automatic WiFi positioning, SkyPath delivers consistent turbulence awareness regardless of cockpit environment.
Early warning alerts to protect flight operations before delays spread
SITA’s new Advance Flight Delay Notification API gives airports and airlines earlier visibility to reduce knock-on disruption
When arrival airports learn about flight delays too late, the cost is felt far beyond the schedule. Ground teams may wait unnecessarily, gates may sit blocked, crews may run out of legal duty time and passengers can miss connections, driving avoidable expense, frustration and potential reputational damage. As traffic volumes rise and recovery margins shrink, SITA has launched Advance Flight Delay Notification API to give airlines and airports earlier visibility of potential delays, allowing teams to act sooner and limit disruption before it escalates.
The financial impact of late intervention is already significant. The International Air Transport Association (IATA) estimates that air traffic flow management delays in Europe alone have cost airlines and passengers €16.1 billion over the past decade. Much of this cost is not caused by the delay itself, but by the lack of timely information needed to adjust plans, reassign resources and protect onward schedules before disruption spreads.
SITA’s Advance Flight Delay Notification API is designed to close that gap. The solution uses the most up-to-date departure information, combined with business logic based on expected flight duration, to anticipate potential delays and automatically inform destination airports. It delivers automated early warnings and real-time updates on delayed or potentially disrupted flights directly to destination airports. This can give airline and airport arrival teams the time they need to adapt operational plans earlier, reducing knock-on effects across aircraft turnarounds, crew planning, gate allocation and passenger connections.
“Most disruption isn’t caused by the delay itself, but by how late it becomes visible to the teams expected to manage it,” said Martin Smillie, Senior Vice President, Communications and Data Exchange at SITA. “Across the industry, arrival airports are still forced to react rather than intervene. Advance Flight Delay Notification API shifts that model by giving earlier, reliable signals, so operational decisions are made with time, not under pressure, and the impact on passengers, costs and airline network performance is reduced.”
The solution provides centralized alerts and push notifications to key stakeholders at arrival airports, supporting clearer coordination and more effective resource planning. Aircraft service teams, ground handlers and onward crews gain early insight into inbound disruption, helping avoid idle time, last-minute changes and unnecessary strain on already constrained operations.
Delivered through secure, encrypted HTTP connections, Advance Flight Delay Notification API removes the need for repeated schedule requests and manual updates. Automated alerts notify passengers when a flight is expected to depart 15 minutes later than its original scheduled time, giving teams valuable lead time to adjust passenger processing, aircraft servicing and onward flight plans.
Advance Flight Delay Notification API is offered as a subscription service and forms part of SITA’s wider flight information API portfolio, allowing airlines and airports to securely share accurate, real-time operational data with trusted partners across the air transport ecosystem.

Qatar Airways Supercharges Global Operations With Next-Generation Network
Airline’s worldwide rollout of SITA’s SD-WAN sets a new benchmark for aviation connectivity and performance
GENEVA – 13 November 2025 – Airlines today face the dual challenge of rising passenger volumes and increasingly complex digital operations. Legacy networks are stretched thin, making it harder to keep global outstations connected, secure, and resilient. To overcome these pressures, Qatar Airways, one of the world’s leading airlines, has rolled out SITA’s next-generation Software-Defined Wide Area Network (SD-WAN) technology across its international outstations. The agreement marks the first large-scale SD-WAN deployment for a major global airline by SITA.

SD-WAN replaces rigid legacy networks with a flexible, software-based system that intelligently routes data across multiple connections, including MPLS, broadband and dedicated internet, and LTE/5G accesses, choosing the best path in real time. This means faster response times, fewer outages, and greater resilience for mission-critical airline systems that must work smoothly across hundreds of sites worldwide.
The rollout covered 350+ outstation sites and multiple data centers. It addresses long-standing issues with latency and bandwidth, making sure essential applications always get priority. For passengers, this translates into shorter waits, faster access to digital services, and a consistently connected and improved experience.
Cybersecurity is further strengthened too. The managed network uses multiple layers of protection to keep sensitive data safe and operations running smoothly. This includes secure channels for all data, strict access controls to ensure only the right people can connect, and a “zero-trust” approach that continuously verifies every user and device. Together, these safeguards reduce the risk of cyberattacks and give Qatar Airways the confidence that its global operations are protected end to end.
“Airlines everywhere are grappling with soaring traffic volumes, rising security threats, and the need to modernize creaking legacy infrastructure,” said Selim Bouri, President, Middle East & Africa at SITA. “SD-WAN is a game changer because it delivers the speed, resilience, and protection needed to keep operations running seamlessly at global scale. With Qatar Airways, we’re seeing a flagship example of how next-generation networks can unlock new levels of efficiency and customer experience across the industry.”
For Qatar Airways, the strategy is about more than connectivity. “We have always been committed to adopting innovations that strengthen our operations and elevate the passenger journey and experience,” said Suhail Kadri, Chief Information Officer at Qatar Airways. “Our collaboration with SITA reflects that vision. Together, we are building a network that supports our growth ambitions and sets a new standard for how airlines connect and operate worldwide.”
By adopting SITA’s SD-WAN, Qatar Airways is future-proofing its operations while setting a precedent for others to follow. Its hub-and-spoke network already links more than 172 destinations with 250 aircraft, and now its digital backbone is built to support seamless expansion and a truly connected passenger journey.
