Derad Network
The Derad Network is a decentralized system of ADS-B (Automatic Dependent Surveillance–Broadcast) ground stations designed to improve global air traffic data coverage and safety. By incentivizing community participation through a token-based model, it addresses existing challenges in aviation tracking, especially in underserved areas.
Overview
Derad Network was founded in 2024 to overcome the limitations of traditional ADS-B ground station deployment, which can be costly and inefficient. It enables individuals to host their own ADS-B receivers using low-cost hardware, thereby expanding coverage in areas with limited aviation surveillance. Contributors are rewarded in DRD tokens, a cryptocurrency that can be exchanged for services on the network.
