FIFA 2026: Advancing
City-Wide Airspace Safety
Protect more than individual stadiums, secure the full urban airspace. Hidden Level delivers city-wide,
real-time drone detection that empowers agencies to protect residents, visitors, and major events alike.
Securing the City-wide skies for major events
Unauthorized drones are one of the fastest-growing threats to modern airspace- putting people, venues, and critical infrastructure at risk. A single drone can disrupt a global event, breach restricted airspace, or even deliver harmful payloads.
Protecting a stadium is just the beginning. Securing the surrounding region- from transporation hubs to pedestrian zones- is essential to creating a safe, seamless experience for fans and communities everywhere.
With Hidden Level, security teams gain the visbility and control required to safegaurd the airspace- from venues to entire regions. Our advanced capabilities set a new standard for real-time airspace awareness:
Detect and Locate Threats in Real Time
Identify both cooperative and non-cooperative drones and pinpoint operator locations through advanced passive radar and RF monitoring.
Deploy Quickly, Adapt Anywhere
Mission-ready hardware and software install in hours on fixed or mobile platforms—delivering immediate, flexible coverage for any venue or event.
Predict, Prevent, and Respond Smarter
Real-time analytics and aggregated data empower proactive planning, faster decisions, and coordinated emergency response across complex environments.
Trusted, Compliant, and Scalable
Fully compliant with U.S. Title 18 and global regulations, validated by NASA and DoD testing, and delivered as a cost-effective, scalable managed service.
Empowering Public Safety with Real-Time Drone Detection, Tracking, and Mitigation
- Comprehensive Airspace Awareness: Delivers city-widedetection of both cooperative and “dark” drones—including small, fast, orgrouped aircraft that pose the highest risk.
- Real-Time Response Enablement: Pinpoints operator locations and issues instant alerts, allowing teams to coordinate rapid, effective responses.
- Authorized Mitigation Support: Expands options for approved countermeasures such as jammers, spoofers, or intercept UAS under federal authority.
- Integrated and Scalable Operations: Seamlessly connects with state and local systems to provide shared surveillance and scale Drone as a First Responder (DFR) programs for major events.

Case Study:
From Stadium protection to City-wide Airspace Security in Arlington, Texas
Arlington’s adoption of Hidden Level’s AMS began as an event-security initiative that evolved into giving public safety teams the insight they need to monitor, assess, and respond to aerial activity in real time. By combining advanced detection, predictive analytics, and DFR support, Arlington is setting a new standard for citywide airspace security.
A New Model for Public Safety: Stadium and Beyond
Drone as First Responder
Arlington is among the first U.S. cities approved for BVLOS drone operations. Paired with AMS, DFR units respond to emergencies within minutes—arriving faster than patrol vehicles and delivering live overhead intelligence that enhances safety for officers and civilians. Integrated with AMS, every flight remains safe, compliant, and coordinated with manned aircraft. APD's DFR program increases police and emergency response capabilities needed for high-profile events such as FIFA venues, hotels, and transportation hubs.
World Series Parade Protection
When more than half a million fans filled the Entertainment District to celebrate the Texas Rangers’ championship, AMS provided continuous airspace awareness. Police identified and stopped unauthorized drones before they entered restricted zones, keeping the skies clear and the celebration safe.
Fireworks Surge Response
Fourth of July and New Year’s Eve fireworks once flooded 911 lines with false calls. Now, AMS data guides drone crews to real-time hotspots, verifying incidents and confirming the incident before dispatching resources. Resulting in fewer false alarms, faster response, and reduced strain on police and fire teams.
Near Collision Averted
During an NFL game, AMS detected a drone within 30 feet of an incoming helicopter. Arlington PD tracked and located the operator, leading to swift enforcement—illustrating AMS’ potential to prevent tragedies in crowded airspace.
