Aircraft information can be easily integrated to Internet of Things by ADS-B technology. The spaceborne ADS-B receiver equipped with TianTuo-3 satellite has realized China’s first aircraft surveillance from space, it has been working well and stably receiving over 100 million ADS-B messages from global aircraft during last four years. In this paper, the data obtained by the TianTuo-3 ADS-B receiver is analysed in detail, including statistical analysis on the detection probability, the proportion of all types of aircraft, the increasing rate of aircraft in the world. These results demonstrated that satellite ADS-B system provides an all-around safety and surveillance to air traffic management, and it can help in rescuing, surveying, or tracking of special aircraft, or analysing world flight for economic studies.
