Swiss DroneMap

Big update: an all-new design, dark mode, hourly weather flight scores for your drone and a flight logbook. Know where you can fly in Switzerland before you take off.

Swiss Drone Map is an interactive drone map for planning drone flights in Switzerland. Check drone zones, airspace restrictions, airports, protected areas, aviation obstacles, NOTAM and DABS information directly on the map.

The app helps recreational and professional drone pilots assess a planned flight location and collect important information before take-off. You can also store and manage personal documents required for private or commercial drone operations.

SWISS DRONE MAP

The drone map of Switzerland includes:

• national and cantonal drone airspace restrictions • airports, heliports and control zones (CTR) • hospital helipads • military areas • prisons and critical infrastructure • nuclear power plants • nature reserves and wildlife protection areas • energy and gas infrastructure • aviation obstacles such as buildings, masts and power lines • nearby parking locations • seven different base map styles

NOTAM, DABS AND LIVE AIR TRAFFIC

Swiss Drone Map provides access to current NOTAM and DABS information for today and tomorrow. Publicly available position data for aircraft and helicopters can also be displayed on the map.

Live traffic data is provided for information only. It may be incomplete or delayed and must not be used for navigation, separation, collision avoidance or other operational decisions.

EASY-FLY ZONES

The Easy-Fly view visualises distances of 30 and 150 metres from settlements, forests, railway lines and power lines. It provides a quick first assessment of a planned drone flight area but does not replace a legal review or an on-site risk assessment.

DOCUMENTS FOR DRONE PILOTS

Store important documents directly in the app:

• remote pilot certificate from UAS.gate or EASA • UAS operator registration number for private or commercial use • proof of insurance • additional personal flight and operating documents

CHECK AIRSPACE AND NO-FLY ZONES

Before every drone flight, check whether restrictions, authorisation requirements or temporary no-fly zones apply at the planned location. The Swiss drone map helps you identify possible conflicts with aircraft, helicopters, protected areas and critical infrastructure.

Ignoring applicable drone regulations may result in fines or other legal consequences. Always verify the latest information provided by the responsible authorities and assess the actual conditions at the flight location.

UPDATES AND DATA SOURCES

Flight-related map data is updated regularly, usually every day. Links to NOTAM and DABS information are refreshed regularly.

The map is based on publicly available official and open data sources:

• Swiss Federal Geoportal / swisstopo – map.geo.admin.ch • Swiss Federal Office of Civil Aviation, FOCA – bazl.admin.ch • DABS and NOTAM information – skybriefing.com • live air traffic data – OpenSky Network
