Remote Drone ID™ (RDID)

Remote Drone ID (RDID)

Spotter's Remote Drone ID™ detects and tracks 100% of FAA-compliant drones as well as the location of the operator up to 3km (1.86 miles) away with zero false alarms.


  • Low cost solution
  • Seamless integration with Spotter’s NetworkedIO™ (NIO) C2 software and Integrated Management Center ® (IMC)
  • Real Time Alarms on drones and operators entering into geo-referenced zones
  • Able to cue cameras to drone and operator targets for visual confirmation

Where Can RDID Help Prevent Harm


Critical Infrastructure Locations

  • Power generation
  • Power substations
  • Airports
  • Data centers
  • Water treatment locations
  • Military bases
  • Solar farms
  • Port and harbors
  • Mining sites


Other Location That Will Benefit From RDID

  • Protect sports stadiums
  • Schools and Universities
  • Special events where people will gather
  • Manufacturing facilities
  • Resorts
  • And many others


RDID is also the simplest and easiest-to-deploy sensor that Spotter Global has ever made. It can be mounted on almost any structure or location using Spotter Global's proprietary ball mount or a magnet mount. 

The RDID is also excellent for mobile use. If you you are a police officer or sheriff who needs to provide security for an event where lots of people will be gathering, just put the RDID on a tripod or use the magnetic mount to hook it to any metal object or car. Simply plug the device into a computer running our NIO software, apply power to RDID, and you are tracking 100% of FAA compliant drones and their pilots' locations. 


Find the pilot. Stop the drone™. 

The only government-approved method of mitigating a drone threat is to find the pilot and persuade them to land or reroute their drone. Some pilots will do so immediately once asked politely, while others will need to be reminded of FAA guidelines or state privacy laws. RDID shows the precise location of the drone pilot so that security or law enforcement personnel can go intervene with the pilot as soon as possible. 

The Remote Drone ID (RDID) is a perimeter security sensor from Spotter Global that offers ease of use, quick setup, and incredible value to stop unwanted drone threats. 

Because RDID detects the FAA-mandated Remote ID that is transmitted by the drone, it can detect and track all FAA-compliant drone movement, day or night, and provide the geolocation of the drone operator as well as tracking information on the drone.

RDID is the ideal, low-cost solution for detecting all “careless and clueless” drone activity, as well as low-sophistication criminal drone activity. These categroies make up 95+ percent of all drone sightings in the airspace above and around critical infrastructure sites, schools, public gatherings, private residences, and much more.
