Universal Drone Management Platform Integration for Genetec Security Center

ADDONXPERT Drone Dispatcher universal drone integration logo

    DRONE DISPATCHER is a smart gateway that connects professional drone management platforms (such as FlytBase, Skydio Cloud, and others) to Genetec Security Center. This universal plugin enables centralized orchestration of aerial operations by integrating drone fleet management software into a unified security environment, supporting multiple drone technology providers.

    With this integration, operators manage their drone fleets directly from Security Center without switching between multiple software platforms. Live video streams, GPS coordinates, telemetry, system status, and mission history from any connected drone management platform are consolidated into the Security Center interface, enhancing situational awareness and operational responsiveness across the entire security infrastructure.

    Unified platform integration: Drone management platforms, their associated drones, cameras, and docking stations are fully integrated within Genetec Security Center as native entities. The plugin bridges drone fleet software APIs with Security Center, ensuring real-time access to video feeds, telemetry data, and precise flight tracking.

    Multi-platform compatibility: DRONE DISPATCHER functions as a universal middleware layer that translates between various drone management platform APIs (FlytBase, Skydio, custom platforms) and Security Center's REST APIs. This modular design allows new drone software vendors to be added without modifying Security Center configuration.

    Smart missions and map-based navigation: DRONE DISPATCHER enables automated or manual drone dispatch to predefined locations, either on command or triggered by specific alerts. All flight paths are displayed in real-time on the system map, supporting faster response and targeted monitoring.

    Enhanced coverage and resource efficiency: Automated drone operations reduce reaction times, provide access to hard-to-reach areas, and minimize the need for on-site personnel. Post-mission analysis also improves incident review and operational insights.

    Interactive map markers and point-and-click navigation: Operators can interact directly with the Security Center map by right-clicking to create markers and send "Go to location" commands. This intuitive feature enables precise drone positioning by transmitting GPS coordinates from map markers directly to the drone management platforms, streamlining incident response and tactical deployment.

    Designed as a modular connector, DRONE DISPATCHER is compatible with multiple drone ecosystems and offers an open architecture that adapts to evolving security requirements. It's a strategic solution for any organization aiming to integrate aerial surveillance software into its security workflow—without vendor lock-in.
