INDIVIDUALITY: Show or hide airspaces and areas. Use five different map modes and choose between your own location or any point on the map. APPLICABILITY: The app was developed for professional drone pilots, but also includes information and functions for hobbyist users. What is Dronemaps24? The most important thing in advance: The no-fly zones at Dronemaps24 are free for drone pilots. Dronemaps24 is an interactive map from pilots for pilots. It helps to maintain zones with legal restrictions, so that drone pilots at any location in Germany, Austria, Luxembourg and Switzerland know what they need to consider and – what makes Dronemaps24 unique – whom to contact, if you want to get a permission to fly in such a zone. We have created the foundation and deposited all the contacts we know so far. However, the card can only grow with your help. We are happy if you sign-up for free to help and edit the no-flight zones and contact persons as accurately as possible. If you also notice something else, we look forward to your feedback on each topic. Simply use the “Feedback” link at the bottom right. With Dronemaps24 we want to enable pilots: Where can I fly? Mark a point on the map where you as a drone pilot want to take aerial shots. In addition to the general permit, you may also need a special permit. In the sidebar, you’ll see all relevant contact information and the current forms for this location. What do I need to apply for where? You will immediately see all no-fly zones at the marked location, as well as contact details and forms from local authorities. With pre-formulated mails, you can, for example, apply for a certificate of safety from the responsible public order office for your flight. Once you’ve received all the permits, nothing stands in the way of your drone flight. In order for the contact information on Dronemaps24 to be up-to-date, we need your support. We have laid the foundation stone and deposited all the contacts we know so far. Now it’s up to you. Simply register and add zones or add additional contacts via the zone editor. Motivation: We want to make it easier for drone pilots to fly, rather than dealing with permits. With the new drone regulation, these are now also required for hobby istes with cameras in many cities and municipalities since April 2017. For many, this is still new. Who do I have to ask? Who is responsible for what? We want to help ensure that even a short commercial flight at the wedding is pre-approved by a friend’s friend – it should be as simple as that.
