Global, trusted, high-quality navigation data

Navigation+ provides a comprehensive worldwide database to cover international and domestic operations. Compatible with major OEMs, the solution is available for loading into Flight Management Systems (FMS data) or can be delivered as a raw ARINC 424 dataset for its many uses.

Skywise works with 195 countries globally, to gather data in all its formats from state sources. Data is analysed by our team of experts and necessary updates made to the database, human and automated verification steps ensure consistent, high-quality navigation data. This occurs every 28-days so our customers have the data they need on time, every time.

Since 2022, and the addition of our site in Gdansk, Skywise has been able to focus on data beyond the 28-day AIRAC cycle. Global specification updates and regional projects have enhanced Navigation+ to a new level of coverage and quality which can be promptly deployed as standard, or tailored as required to meet more complex procedures.

Skywise maintains EASA DAT Type 1 certification and due to regional projects in Australia, have now received Part 175 certification by CASA.
