LYNEports Launches Full Aviation Infrastructure Planning Platform

Avi­a­tion infra­struc­ture tech­nol­o­gy com­pa­ny LYNEports has launched the full ver­sion of its plan­ning soft­ware, bring­ing tools for air­ports, heli­ports, ver­ti­ports, drone infra­struc­ture and avi­a­tion-relat­ed real estate devel­op­ment into a sin­gle plat­form.

The launch con­cludes a pub­lic beta that began in May 2025. The soft­ware is designed to help users assess whether a pro­posed site can sup­port avi­a­tion before pro­gress­ing to detailed design or invest­ment.

LYNEports com­bines reg­u­la­to­ry infor­ma­tion, air­craft require­ments, site con­straints and avi­a­tion oper­a­tions with­in the same plan­ning envi­ron­ment. Users can cre­ate 2D lay­outs and 3D mod­els while con­sid­er­ing fac­tors includ­ing ter­rain, obsta­cles, wind, sur­round­ing devel­op­ment, util­i­ties, grid access and emer­gency require­ments.

The soft­ware also con­tains tools for CO2 emis­sion cal­cu­la­tion, ter­rain and obsta­cle sim­u­la­tions, fire and emer­gency pro­vi­sion, grid access, safe­ty, and com­par­isons between dif­fer­ent sites with­in the sys­tem to find weak links or poten­tial short­falls.

The plat­form also includes air­space analy­sis and VFR and IFR flight plan­ning. Users can exam­ine cur­rent and his­tor­i­cal flight activ­i­ty around a pro­posed site, gen­er­ate routes and assess how planned oper­a­tions could inter­act with exist­ing traf­fic.

Rasha Alsha­mi, CEO and Man­ag­ing Direc­tor of LYNEports, said that the rea­son­ing behind the soft­ware was to stream­line mul­ti­ple tools into a sin­gle plan­ning envi­ron­ment.

“…ten dif­fer­ent tools open, reg­u­la­to­ry frame­works on one screen, air­craft spec­i­fi­ca­tions on anoth­er, draw­ings some­where else, and spread­sheets hold­ing the rest togeth­er. Tech­nol­o­gy should be doing more of that work for us. Spe­cial­ists should have more time to think about safe­ty, third par­ties, oper­a­tions and the deci­sions that actu­al­ly require judge­ment.”

Anoth­er com­po­nent is dig­i­tal sim­u­la­tion, allow­ing air­craft and ground vehi­cle move­ments to be test­ed against pro­posed lay­outs before phys­i­cal infra­struc­ture is built. LYNEports says the tools are intend­ed to help plan­ners eval­u­ate clear­ances, cir­cu­la­tion and dif­fer­ent oper­a­tional sce­nar­ios dur­ing the design process.

Envi­ron­men­tal con­sid­er­a­tions are also includ­ed, with esti­mat­ed CO2 emis­sions avail­able for planned flight routes. This allows emis­sions to be com­pared along­side route, air­craft and oper­a­tional choic­es dur­ing the plan­ning stage.

The plat­form incor­po­rates LYNEports’ Air­Wor­thy Readi­ness frame­work for assess­ing indi­vid­ual sites and real estate port­fo­lios. Devel­op­ers and infra­struc­ture own­ers can com­pare mul­ti­ple prop­er­ties, iden­ti­fy avi­a­tion-relat­ed con­straints and use rough-order-of-mag­ni­tude cost esti­mates when decid­ing which sites war­rant fur­ther inves­ti­ga­tion.

Reg­u­la­to­ry Frame­work Intel­li­gence, which can apply select­ed reg­u­la­to­ry require­ments and air­craft char­ac­ter­is­tics to pro­posed designs, is cur­rent­ly avail­able to Enter­prise cus­tomers.
