MamDron Apps for Drone Flight Planning introduced by R-SYS Ltd, Slovakia

TRENCIN, Slovakia - Sept. 9, 2021 - PRLog -- A purpose of MamDron project performed in a cooperation with the "Mám Dron" civil society is to provide Slovak drone pilots with all information needed for flight planning. MamDron IS includes also applications for iOS and Android mobile devices that are available free of charge to registered users: https://mamdron.sk/aplikacia-mamdron/

MamDron IS users are provided with tools needed for planning drone flights in a compliance with the applicable Slovak and European legislation in effect. Operations of drones (unmanned aircraft) are governed by several regulations restricting or prohibiting drone flights in certain portions of the airspace. Generally, such restrictions refer not only to airspace areas allocated for manned aircraft operations but also to an airspace identified by reserved areas on the surface, such as conservation areas, critical infrastructure, etc. MamDron IS role is to provide an access to this kind of data by use of just one SW application and through a single interface. Hence, upon submitting a flight plan (by specifying the operation category, flight route, duration and a purpose of the flight) the drone operator is clearly notified about specific conditions and limitations applied to the intended operation.

How MamDron Applications Work

The core of the mobile application is an interactive map showing to a drone pilot the zone allocated for his intended flight as specified in flight plan he can fill-in and submit with just a few clicks. A couple seconds after its submitting, MamDron provides all available information on possible constraints along the flight route including reserved areas and no-drone zones (where drone flying is temporary not allowed), and produces their visual representation on the screen of the pilot's mobile device. Then, after a receipt of the related notification message, the pilot can check the zone availability for future flights. If the allocated drone zone overlaps with a reserved area or no-drone zone, the pilot can change his flight plan.

MamDron users can benefit also from an access to information about no-drone zones as specified by municipalities collaborating with the MamDron producer. Generally, such no-drone zones may include kindergartens, play grounds, hospitals or other places that may be endangered by drones flying over them, mainly for privacy, safety or security reasons. MamDron also notifies the drone pilot about a risk of its collision with another drone using the same zone, and provides information about a current weather in specified drone zones.
