The use of unmanned systems is expanding at a pace across both military and civilian environments. Drones and other uncrewed platforms are now widely available, adaptable, and increasingly present in modern conflicts and security incidents. As a result, organisations responsible for security, defence, and infrastructure protection must operate within a rapidly evolving threat environment.
OverSite, developed by EWS, provides structured intelligence designed to help organisations understand and respond to UxV threats. At the core of the service is a comprehensive drone database that combines open-source intelligence with specialist analysis to support electronic warfare (EW) planning and electronic countermeasures (ECM) development.
Built by military veterans and defence specialists, OverSite reflects operational experience and a practical understanding of how unmanned systems are used in real-world environments. The platform gives organisations access to the information needed to identify emerging threats, evolving tactics, and new drone capabilities.

Effective electronic warfare and counter-UxV operations depend on understanding how adversaries employ unmanned systems. This includes their technical capabilities, communication methods, navigation systems, and the tactics used during deployment.
OverSite provides intelligence that helps organisations answer key operational questions:
By consolidating these insights into a structured drones database, OverSite allows analysts, planners and engineers to move beyond anecdotal reporting and base decisions on evidence drawn from global data.
This intelligence can support the development of C-UAS solutions, inform electronic warfare strategies, and improve situational awareness across a wide range of operational environments.

At the centre of the OverSite service is a continually expanding global drone database focused on unmanned systems and related security incidents.
The database captures intelligence relating to a broad range of platforms, including:
Each entry provides structured information about the platform or incident, enabling users to examine technical characteristics, operational context, and patterns of use.
This approach helps organisations build a clearer understanding of how unmanned systems are shaping the modern security landscape and the potential implications for regional security and infrastructure protection.
Understanding adversary capabilities is fundamental to designing effective electronic countermeasures.
OverSite supports this process by providing intelligence that can inform:
For organisations developing C-UAS solutions, the database provides visibility of the technical specifications and operational use of UxVs worldwide. This insight helps engineers and system designers identify emerging trends and develop technologies that remain effective as adversaries adapt.
The result is intelligence that supports practical decision-making, whether in operational planning, capability development, or research and development.
OverSite provides a structured intelligence platform designed for operational use.
Unclassified Open-Source Intelligence: The database is built using open source intelligence (OSINT) derived from publicly available sources. This allows organisations to share and disseminate insights without classification restrictions.

Extensive Global Coverage: The database provides global monitoring of UxV-related incidents, with collectively 1000 events across OSTD & Oversite.
Detailed Technical Data Events and platforms are supported by technical specifications, source documentation, and reference material, allowing deeper analysis.

Multimedia Intelligence: Where available, entries include imagery and video material.
OverSite has been designed to support organisations that operate in environments where UxV threats are becoming increasingly relevant.
For armed forces, the platform provides intelligence on drone capabilities, deployment patterns, and electronic warfare considerations. This information supports planning, capability development, and operational awareness.
Law enforcement agencies are encountering drones in a growing range of contexts, from organised crime to hostile reconnaissance. OverSite helps analysts track global trends and emerging tactics.
Infrastructure operators face growing concerns around drone activity near sensitive facilities. OverSite provides insight into global incidents and emerging risks, helping organisations understand potential vulnerabilities.
OverSite also provides value for Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) involved in the development of counter-unmanned aerial systems.
Access to a detailed UxV technical catalogue enables research and development teams to:
By grounding development in real-world intelligence, OEMs can ensure their solutions remain relevant in a complex and evolving threat environment.
The intelligence within OverSite is curated by specialists focused on IED, RCIED and UxV threats.
Research teams conduct structured monitoring across a range of international sources, supported by multilingual analysts who work in primary languages. This approach ensures the platform captures intelligence from regions that may otherwise be overlooked.
The result is a dataset that reflects the global reach of unmanned systems and the diverse environments in which they are used.

Alongside access to the database, organisations can request tailored intelligence reports and briefing packs.
These reports can support:
This allows organisations to turn raw intelligence into clear, actionable insight relevant to their specific environment.
Understanding how unmanned systems are evolving is essential for organisations responsible for security, defence, and infrastructure protection. Access to reliable intelligence allows decision-makers to anticipate threats rather than react to them. Through OverSite, EWS provides organisations with a trusted drone database and OSINT intelligence capability developed by professionals with operational experience in defence and security. If your organisation needs better visibility of emerging drone threats, evolving tactics, and global UxV activity, OverSite can provide the intelligence required to support electronic warfare planning and effective counter-UAS strategies.
Whether you are a government; operating in the defence sector; a global organisation; working in national and domestic security; or are a commercial business, you can rely on EWS to provide you with unbiased and honest advice.
