Air traffic monitoring is an important part of aviation operations and plays a key role in ensuring the safety of aircraft, passengers, and personnel and maintaining efficient use of airspace. The need for increased air traffic and enhanced situational awareness has led to a growing demand for reliable, real-world monitoring solutions. This research introduces a real-time air traffic monitoring system developed with the Raspberry Pi. The system is designed to record, process, and display air traffic data efficiently. Various sensors are used to identify ambient conditions such as temperature, air humidity, air pressure, and even the proximity of aircraft and drones in limited airspace. If the sensor detects abnormal or critical conditions, such as extreme weather changes or unauthorized flight objects, the system immediately activates the alarm mechanism using a buzzer. At the same time, the collected data is transferred to the IoT platform, specifically ThingSpeak, allowing for remote time monitoring. The IoT platform enables certified users, including airport personnel and supervisory staff, to view live data from anywhere and receive immediate notifications about potential fraud and security concerns.
