App for local residents

Notifly has been specially developed for people living close to Schiphol. So that you stay informed on how many aircraft will fly overhead and when. The forecast for a location only works if you live in the area surrounding Schiphol. Sometimes, there may be more planes flying above your location due to the weather conditions or runway maintenance. In that case, Notifly will send you a notification (if desired) so that you immediately know why you are hearing more planes.

How is air traffic predicted?

To make Notifly’s predictions as accurate as possible, the app uses a special algorithm. It contains a variety of data, including radar data and information about wind and other weather conditions (KNMI). The algorithm searches the data for comparable conditions for the date and time for which a prediction is required. It then compares the prediction with the collected data to see whether the forecast was correct. If not, then how inaccurate was it? The algorithm processes this new data and learns from it. That's how the predictions in Notifly get a bit better every time.
