Licences and data sources
Drone Map draws nothing of its own. Every boundary, notice and tile on the map comes from a published source, listed here with the terms it is provided under. None of it is an official pre-flight briefing, and none of it removes the remote pilot’s responsibility for the flight.
Airspace and notices
Flight restriction zones around aerodromes, and prohibited, restricted and danger areas across the United Kingdom.
Published free of charge by NATS for UAS operators. © NATS.
Live notices to airmen, read hourly from the published UK Pre-flight Information Bulletin and filtered to the ones that matter below 400 ft.
© NATS. Read from the public PIB archive maintained by Jonty Wareing.
Controlled and special-use airspace: CTR, CTA, TMA, ATZ, TMZ and RMZ boundaries, alert areas, temporary reserved areas and navigation warnings. Published by NATS as AIXM on the 28-day AIRAC cycle.
Published free of charge by NATS. Unrestricted access and use; not for resale. © NATS.
Military aerodrome traffic zones, and the glider and microlight launching sites, both of which the UK publishes as tables in the eAIP rather than in the dataset.

Using what you see here
Records you export - check reports, SOPs and invoices - are yours to use as you like. The airspace data behind them is not ours to relicense: if you want to republish it, take it from the sources above under their own terms. The AIP in particular is published for aviation use and not for resale, which is why no plan sells access to the data itself and the map is free to use.
Reporting an error
If a boundary looks wrong, it is almost certainly wrong at source and worth reporting there so every user benefits. Tell us as well at info@huum.co and we will chase it.
