Share your EDR data with SkyPath

If your aircraft already produce turbulence measurements, SkyPath can receive them, process them, and display them as an EDR layer on the map and as part of SkyPath OneLayer - so your own fleet's data comes back to your pilots and dispatchers alongside SkyPath Observations, Nowcast, ADS-B turbulence and PIREPs.

EDR (Eddy Dissipation Rate) is the aircraft-independent turbulence metric adopted by ICAO and the WMO as the standard for automated turbulence reporting.

There are two ways to send us your reports:

API requests. Your systems post EDR reports to a SkyPath endpoint. You do not need to convert them first - we accept the format your fleet already produces, whether that is JSON, XML, raw ACARS message text, or something custom, and we adapt on our side. We issue an API key for staging and production when we set up the integration; authentication works like the rest of the SkyPath API.

Email. Forward the reports to a SkyPath mailbox, either manually or with an automatic forwarding rule. This is the fastest way to start if your provider already emails EDR downlinks to an internal address.

Talk to us

Every feed is set up together with our team, since the details differ from one operator to the next. Contact us through the SkyPath contact page or at [email protected] with a short sample of your reports and your preferred option, and we will confirm what we can read and validate your data on staging before it goes live.
