Know Before You Fly Campaign Integrates AirMap Airspace Information

  • By Greg McNeal
  • In Drones, Featured, Law and Public Policy

I am pleased to announce the integration of AirMap’s airspace information into the Know Before You Fly campaign.

Know Before You Fly is an education campaign founded by the Association for Unmanned Vehicle Systems International (AUVSI), the Academy of Model Aeronautics (AMA), and the Small UAV Coalition in partnership with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to educate prospective users about the safe and responsible operation of unmanned aircraft systems (UAS).

As excitement and enthusiasm continues to grow around UAS, and the regulatory framework continues to take shape, more consumers are looking to buy UAS for personal use and more businesses are looking to use UAS too. These prospective operators want to fly, and fly safely, but many don’t realize that, just because you can buy a UAS, doesn’t mean you can fly it anywhere, or for any purpose. Know Before You Fly provides prospective users with the information and guidance they need to fly safely and responsibly.

Now with AirMap airspace information, the campaign can do even more to ensure that fliers can fly in a safe and responsible fashion.  As part of the campaign, AirMap is providing the following pieces of information:

Drone Flight Restriction Information By AirMap

As an example, you can see how AirMap provides live information about firefighting temporary flight restrictions (TFRs), ensuring that operators are aware of restrictions near wildfires.
