Whether you're a hobbyist or professional drone pilot, DroneMaps makes it easy to view FAA Sectionals and UAS Facility Maps.

You'll use the compass icon to center the map on your location. Then click on the layer icon to select a base layer and overlay.

Base layers include Google Maps and FAA Sectionals. You can toggle UAS Facility Maps as an overlay on one of the base layers.

UAS Facility Maps show the maximum altitudes around airports where the FAA may authorize part 107 UAS operations without additional safety analysis. These maps DO NOT authorize operations in these areas at the depicted altitudes – they are for informational purposes ONLY.

DroneMaps is a work in progress and I plan on releasing more layers in the near future. If you have any suggestions please reach out to me on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/dennisbaldwin

I developed DroneMaps using React Native because more and more of my users are asking for Android support. I hope to bring DronePan, DroneBlocks, and Droneception to Android using RN.
