U.S. AAM infrastructure developer LYNEports has partnered with Saudi drone firm Dunes Aero to embed Dunes' high‑resolution mapping and imagery into LYNEports' AI-powered planning platform, enabling more precise droneport and vertiport siting, design and deployment across Saudi Arabia's emerging AAM projects.

Briefing
Integrating high-resolution mapping into an AI planning tool materially improves precision for siting, design and deployment of droneports/vertiports — a practical precursor to larger AAM build-outs and hub programmes such as scalable, multi-modal air mobility hubs.
The partnership aligns with other infrastructure deals that equip vertiports for defence and sustainment roles, highlighting the dual-use demand for UAS facilities and ground support capabilities (defence-oriented vertiports with dedicated unmanned aircraft retrieval, MRO and sustainment capabilities).
Embedding geospatial imagery into AI planning mirrors the broader industry trend of integrating AI with unmanned platforms for mission planning and onboard processing, which affects both commercial AAM operations and persistent ISR use cases (integrating AI into long-endurance unmanned surveillance platforms).
