Why IonShield

3D geospatial space weather
risk routing

Unlike generic NOAA alerts, IonShield gives you route-specific, platform-aware go/no-go decisions with explainable confidence scores and full data provenance.

🌐
Route-Specific Risk Maps
Every route segment gets its own risk level — NOMINAL to SEVERE — with GPS error estimates and HF viability flags, not just a global alert.
Per-segment risk
📡
HF/SATCOM Fallback Advisor
Instant verdicts — use primary HF, switch to SATCOM, switch to UHF, or HF-not-viable — with the exact physics behind the call.

🎯
Confidence-Tagged Alerts
Every decision carries a 0–1 confidence score with per-driver breakdown. Stale data triggers visible warnings — never silent degradation.

Defense & Mission Assurance
Ground maneuver, aviation, and EW mission planning — go / modify / delay calls per platform, with TAK/CoT overlay integration for the common operating picture.

The same engine also applies to aviation (polar routes, GNSS integrity), satellite operators (SATCOM link margin, proton events), and maritime (HF planning, GPS-INS) — brought online as we expand.
