HopShip puts a 10 Hz tracker on every ground vehicle, draws live geofences around aircraft and restricted zones, and alerts crews in under 100 ms when something is about to go wrong.
Tugs, fuel trucks and belt loaders work feet from $100M aircraft with no live picture of where anything is. Most incidents are invisible until the damage report — a tug clipping an engine cowl, a loader backing into a fuselage, a fuel truck inside a safety zone it never saw. Ground damage costs the industry billions every year, and the radio isn't fast enough to stop it.
Hardware on every vehicle. Software watching every move.
A rugged HopShip tracker on every GSE vehicle reports position at 10 Hz — ten times a second, airport-wide.
The live platform draws and enforces dynamic zones — around active aircraft, runways, closed sectors.
Breach a boundary or converge with an aircraft, and driver tablets plus ground control are alerted in under 100 ms.
Every movement and event is recorded for full incident replay, audit and training. No more "nobody saw it".
Six capabilities. One job: zero ramp collisions.
Every tug, truck and loader on the live map, ten updates a second — fast enough to see motion, not just dots.
Rule-based and on-the-fly zones: non-movement boundaries around active stands, runway protection, closed sectors. Drawn in seconds, enforced instantly.
Zone breaches and vehicle-to-aircraft convergence trigger alerts to vehicles and ground control before the situation develops.
Aircraft positions fused from ADS-B into the same picture, where proximity logic covers the most valuable asset: the aircraft.
Second-by-second replay of any event, with a complete audit trail for investigations, insurance and driver training.
The HopShip agent understands controller intent — “pushback at A4” — auto-geofences the stand, checks it is clear, and tells any vehicle in the way to move. Routine clearances handled before anyone keys the radio.
Safety is the wedge — the same live fleet data then powers fleet optimization (right-sizing and utilization), dispatch (nearest-vehicle tasking), and a stronger insurance posture backed by a verifiable safety record.
