AVIATION DATA INTELLIGENCE

The Authority on Airport Data.

We source, structure, and serve authoritative FAA airport data from runway geometry to Part 77 obstruction surfaces as a precision platform for aviation professionals worldwide.

THE CHALLENGE

Disrupting the closed data landscape.

  • 28 dayForced AIRAC update lock in
  • Per-seatAnnual licensing

Aviation data infrastructure has not kept pace with the industry it serves. Closed pipelines, limited API access, and fragmented data sources have created unnecessary friction for every developer, operator, and platform building on top of it.

"Our mission is to open the runway. We are building a transparent, API first airport data platform that treats FAA intelligence as a shared utility not a locked asset."

CurvAero is the antithesis of the legacy stack. By sourcing directly from FAA datasets, NASR, DOF, and 5010 and delivering them through a modern REST API, we enable seamless data access across airport planning, Part 77 analysis, and flight operations.

DATA.01

The airport data pipeline

A visual blueprint of how FAA source data flows from raw government datasets to actionable airport intelligence.

Airport QGIS map showing runway layout and taxiwaysFAA NASR

Origin: FAA source data

Airport records ingested directly from the FAA National Airspace System Resource (NASR) subscription, Digital Obstacle File (DOF), updated every 28 day AIRAC cycle.

Data normalization

Raw FAA records are parsed, validated, and cross referenced across datasets, resolving inconsistencies and producing a clean, structured schema ready for API delivery.

THE TEAM

The roles behind the platform

01

Aviation Data Architecture

Airport data ingestion and the Part 77 analysis pipeline: FAA NASR, ADDS and DOF data taken from source to the API.

02

Airport Data Integrity

Aeronautical data quality and AIRAC currency: airport, runway and obstacle records checked against their FAA sources before API delivery.

03

Part 77 Analysis

The Part 77 surface computations: imaginary surfaces and 14 CFR 77.9 notice criteria built from airport geometry.

USE CASES

Why teams choose CurvAero

Built for the people making airport decisions, running operations, and shipping aviation software on deadlines.

Airport Planning

Replace spreadsheet stitching with structured runway geometry, obstacle context, and Part 77 ready datasets.

Outcome: faster feasibility studies

Flight Operations

Keep airport intelligence current with reliable FAA source updates and consistent airport records across internal tools.

Outcome: fewer operational surprises

Developer Platforms

Integrate airport and Part 77 intelligence directly through REST endpoints designed for production systems.

Outcome: shorter integration cycles
