LYNEports (www.lyneports.com), the category-defining AI-powered planning platform for aviation infrastructure, today announced a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Dunes Aero (www.dunesaero.com), a Saudi-based innovator in drone mapping and aerial imagery. The partnership marks a major step in aligning global digital planning tools with local expertise to accelerate the deployment of advanced air mobility infrastructure in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

A Vision for Data-Driven Air Mobility in Saudi Arabia

The collaboration integrates Dunes Aero’s advanced drone mapping capabilities with LYNEports’ digital twin and AI-driven planning engine. By capturing photorealistic topographic and airspace data directly from the field, the partnership enables more precise site evaluations, faster decision-making, and seamless integration of heritage-sensitive design into Saudi Arabia’s mobility transformation.

Key Collaboration Focus Areas

1. High-Resolution Drone Mapping: Dunes Aero’s imagery will feed directly into LYNEports’ planning platform, enriching Saudi projects with dynamic, ground-truth data.

2. Next-Generation Infrastructure Planning: Joint capabilities will enable more accurate placement of droneports and vertiports, with simulations that account for terrain, airspace, and environmental considerations.

3. Local-Global Synergy: The partnership strengthens collaboration between a global planning software provider and a local Saudi aerospace pioneer, aligning with Vision 2030 goals.

Statements from Leadership

Rasha Alshami, CEO of LYNEports, stated:“By integrating Dunes Aero’s high-resolution mapping with LYNEports’ AI planning tools, we can capture data directly from the field in Saudi Arabia, allowing our partners to evaluate sites with unprecedented accuracy and speed. This is a major enabler for Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030, ensuring air mobility networks are not only ambitious but also data-driven, sustainable, and scalable.”

Mohammed Ali Alghamdi, CEO of Dunes Aero, added:“Our mission has always been to unlock the power of aerial mapping for smarter decision-making. Partnering with LYNEports allows us to translate our drone expertise into tangible infrastructure outcomes, helping Saudi regulators, developers, and municipalities design the skies of the future.”

Market Impact and Global Outlook

Saudi Arabia’s commitment to smart cities and advanced connectivity makes it a natural launchpad for this collaboration. The partnership will initially focus on Saudi projects, supporting regulators and developers in moving from pilots to large-scale deployments. Looking ahead, LYNEports and Dunes Aero envision scaling this model across the wider MENA region, Africa, and Asia, where urbanization is accelerating, and data-driven planning is urgently needed.

By pairing local aerial intelligence with LYNEports’ global platform, the partners aim to deliver a repeatable framework for deploying air mobility infrastructure worldwide, unlocking opportunities in cargo logistics, emergency response, and sustainable urban transport.
