How it works

3D model DJI Inspire 2 by Leon Heytens · CC BY 4.0 · adapted

// 01 · Two ways to fly

One engine, your way of flying

Path A · For the love of it

Fly legally, without the paperwork in your head

You fly at weekends and would rather not risk a fine for not knowing what that area requires. Aerset tells you before take-off, for free.

  • →One project, with unlimited shoots
  • →Which permits your flight needs, with their lead times
  • →The Ministry of the Interior filing, through the extension
  • →A regulatory assistant that cites Spanish regulations
  • →Your public portfolio, to show your work
  • →A community of flying spots on the map

Gratis plan · no card

Path B · Production

The whole operation, under control

You shoot for clients, and every flight brings permits, lead times, fleet and crew with it. The engine works out each deadline backwards from the day of the shoot.

  • →Projects and shoots with status and assigned crew
  • →Airspace, NOTAMs and protected areas, by location
  • →Daily and hourly weather for the shoot date
  • →Fleet, maintenance, logbook and checklists
  • →Documents with expiry-date OCR, and alerts
  • →Storyboards generated from the flight plan

A.
Where to flyWe tell you what each place requires, not just where not to goTell us your city and how far you are willing to travel. Places come back sorted by what really decides it: what is on record in the airspace above each one, how far you have to walk and which filing it requires.
B.
Airspace582 aerodromes and 3.796 protected areas, already loadedENAIRE's UAS zones, MITECO's protected natural areas and aerodromes with their frequencies. The map is coloured by difficulty, not by layers you have to interpret.
C.
FilingsThe paperwork THIS flight requires, with its lead timesA shared catalogue of the Spanish rules, maintained by us. Every entry carries its official source and the date it was reviewed — and when it changes, it changes for everybody at once.
D.
AlertsYour insurance expires before the shoot. We tell you in timeExpiry dates of insurance, ratings and documents, checked against the dates of your shoots. The alert arrives while there is still time to fix it.
E.
ProductionProjects, shoots, fleet and logbookWhat you keep in spreadsheets and folders today: crew assigned to each shoot, maintenance, flight hours and checklists ticked off in the field.
F.
AssistantAsk in your own language; it answers citing the source29 official documents indexed. The assistant EXPLAINS the rules and cites the passage with its effective date; what decides which paperwork is needed is still the engine, which can be audited.

New in September

Before take-off.

What the studio checks about your shoot before you fly, layer by layer: every fact with its source and its date, and what it does not know, said out loud. It advises; the last word belongs to the authority and its official viewers.

During the beta everything is open, on every plan. When the beta ends, each feature stays in the plan its label names.

The shoot’s traffic light

Nine layers in one status, each with its source and its date.

Studio screen: the traffic light of a demonstration shoot on the Magdalena peninsula, with paperwork pending and the ENAIRE zones that reach the operation
What it does
Brings together in one status what our sources say about your shoot: paperwork, UAS zones and controlled airspace, the NOTAMs that reach your time window, protected areas, weather, geomagnetic activity and satellites. It adds the distances from buildings that Spanish rules set for each assigned aircraft (with the Cadastre’s footprints), the populated areas that count for the A3 subcategory and the infrastructure zones ENAIRE publishes.
What it does not do
It does not grant permission to fly. If a layer could not be checked, it says so and does not count it as clear. Critical infrastructure is not public and is not in our sources; the courtyards and recreation areas the rules also protect are not in the Cadastre.

The filing, drafted

The email to the aerodrome or to the protected area’s manager, already written.

Studio screen: the coordination request to Santander aerodrome drafted for a demonstration shoot on the Magdalena peninsula, with the subject, the text and the buttons to copy it or open it in an email
What it does
When the engine says your shoot needs coordinating with an aerodrome, with a protected area’s manager or through PLANEA, it leaves you the request written with the operator, the pilot, the aircraft, the date, the time window, the point and the height. Copy it or open it in your email: the aerodrome’s address is the one ENAIRE publishes in its zone, and the protected area’s, the one on its region’s official website when it publishes one. Whatever is missing is marked in the text for you to fill in.
What it does not do
It does not send anything on your behalf or file anything: you send it, and the decision belongs to the body that receives it. If our sources do not have the address of whoever manages it, it says so instead of making one up.

The shoot and the flight in 3D

Terrain, buildings and UAS zones with their name and band, at your height.

Studio screen: the shoot in 3D over the Magdalena peninsula, with the 120 m ceiling around the take-off point and, over the map, the UAS zones that hold that point with their published band
What it does
A 3 km square around the take-off point: terrain, buildings, ENAIRE’s UAS zones named with the band they publish (the ones that hold the take-off point, stated over the map), your operation at its planned height and the sun at the time of the shoot. In the analysis of an imported flight, the track over that scene and a height profile that says between which minutes the aircraft was inside each zone’s outline and on which side of its band.
What it does not do
It is a visual reconstruction, not a measurement: a building’s height is an estimate from its floors, and a limit above sea level is placed using the terrain. Whether a zone reaches your height is still stated by the operations map. It is not loaded on a phone: the same facts arrive as text.

Visible trafficExperimental

Aircraft with ADS-B, and gliders and paragliders with FLARM.

Studio screen: the map of a demonstration shoot in the Casa de Campo with the traffic layer on, the aircraft with their altitude and the fixed notice about what does not appear
What it does
The aircraft that broadcast their position within 15 km of the shoot and below 10,000 ft: ADS-B through adsb.lol, and FLARM or FANET (gliders, paragliders, hang gliders) through the Open Glider Network. It refreshes every 10 seconds, only while the layer is switched on.
What it does not do
It is situational awareness, never separation: many aircraft do not broadcast their position or no receiver hears them. The altitude is the pressure altitude or the device’s own GNSS, not the height above your drone. No registrations or call signs, and nothing is stored.

  • Visible trafficGratis

Weather aloft

Choose the model; wind aloft, shear and density altitude.

Studio screen: the weather of a demonstration shoot, with the wind at 80 m, the shear and the density altitude of the time window
What it does
Choose the forecast model and see, hour by hour, the wind at the published level just above your maximum height, the shear against the wind at 10 m and the density altitude. The judgement on the shoot’s window stays on every plan.
What it does not do
The thresholds are generic multirotor ones, not your aircraft’s, and the shear warning from 5 m/s is a threshold of ours. Density altitude is information: it is not judged. If a model does not publish a column, that is said rather than taken as fine.

The light of the shoot

Golden and blue hours, sun and shadows in your window.

Studio screen: the light of a demonstration shoot, with dawn, sunset, the golden hour and the sun every quarter of an hour of the window
What it does
Civil dawn and the end of civil dusk, sunrise and sunset, the golden and blue hours, and for every quarter of an hour of your window the sun’s elevation and azimuth, with where the shadow falls and how many times the height it measures. An astronomical calculation, for any date.
What it does not do
It does not count terrain or buildings on the horizon. It informs and does not decide: whether the flight is at night is for you to mark.

GNSS satellites

GPS, Galileo, GLONASS and BeiDou, hour by hour, with their DOP.

Studio screen: the GNSS satellites over a demonstration shoot, with the hourly table and the geometry of the window
What it does
How many satellites of the four constellations stay above the elevation mask at your point, hour by hour, and what their geometry is like (PDOP, HDOP and VDOP). With the surrounding terrain, also the ones the mountains hide.
What it does not do
It counts satellites by their orbit, not by their signal: it does not measure interference, jammers or reflections, and we do not know which systems your aircraft tracks. The PDOP 6 threshold is ours, not a regulatory one.

Mobile coverage

The ministry’s official map, centred on your point.

Studio screen: the mobile coverage of a demonstration shoot, with what needs a network and the links to the official 5G and 4G maps
What it does
If you need a network at the point (RTK, live streaming, telemetry or downloads), you note it on the shoot and we remind you on its record, on the field checklist and in the flight manual, with the link to the official 5G and 4G map centred on your coordinates.
What it does not do
It is the coverage the operators declare, on the ground and outdoors: it is not a measurement and says nothing about the signal at height. We do not store its data: the ministry’s viewer opens.

New in October · the day of the shoot

Rodando.In trials · by invitation

The command post for the day of the shoot, on a tablet or a phone: the map with the UAS zones that reach your height and the traffic that broadcasts its position, the wind against your aircraft’s limit, the light that is left, the frequencies of the nearest aerodrome and the checklist. While you fly, alerts are spoken aloud. It warns with our sources and their time; the decision to fly is yours.

Command post

Map, wind, light, frequencies and checklist on one screen.

Rodando on a tablet: a demonstration shoot at the Magdalena in flight, with the map, the UAS zones, the wind at 120 m against the aircraft’s limit, the light, the Santander frequencies and the in-flight checklist
What it does
One screen for the day of the shoot, designed for a tablet: the map with the point, your maximum height and the ENAIRE UAS zones that reach it; the mean wind, the gusts and the wind at your height against your aircraft’s limit; how long is left until sunset; the frequencies of the nearest aerodrome and the VOLMET; and the checklist by phase, before take-off, in flight and after landing. It refreshes itself while it is open, and every figure states its source and its age.
What it does not do
It does not follow your aircraft or read its telemetry, and it does not grant permission to fly. The frequencies come from OurAirports and must be checked in the AIP; the forecast is not a measurement at the point.

Traffic and alerts

Aircraft that broadcast their position, and an alert when one comes closer.

Rodando: a visible-traffic alert 3 km to the north at 1,500 feet, closing, with «No todo el tráfico emite su posición» underneath and the aircraft marked on the map
What it does
The aircraft that broadcast their position around the shoot, with their altitude, on the map and every 10 seconds. When one comes within 5 km and 3,000 ft, Rodando says so with its direction, its distance and its altitude. It also alerts on the wind against your limit, a NOTAM becoming active, sunset and the end of civil twilight, geomagnetic activity and a source that has gone stale.
What it does not do
Not all traffic broadcasts its position, and not all that does reaches our sources: this is situational awareness, never a collision-avoidance system or separation. No registrations or callsigns. The alert thresholds are ours, not regulatory.

Spoken alerts

In flight only, and a report every 15 minutes.

Rodando: the 17:48 report over the map, with the light left, the wind against the limit, the visible traffic and «No todo el tráfico emite su posición»
What it does
While you fly, Rodando speaks the alerts aloud, by priority, in a natural style or in aeronautical phraseology. Every 15 minutes from take-off it gives a report with the light that is left, the wind against your limit and the visible traffic; also every 10 or 30, or never. It starts speaking when you complete the «before take-off» checklist and goes quiet when you complete «after landing».
What it does not do
On the ground it does not speak: the alerts stay on screen. The report’s traffic is the visible traffic: not all traffic broadcasts its position. Muting the voice does not switch the alerts off; they stay on screen and in the session’s record. Without a connection it speaks with the system voice.

Ask

What it does
Press and hold the button and ask aloud, for example «what is the wind at 120 metres?». The studio’s assistant answers with the screen’s live figures, in text and in voice. It works on every plan: with the premium voice it transcribes your question; without it, it uses the browser’s speech recognition, and if there is none, it opens a text field.

Premium voice

A more natural voice, with minutes a month by plan.

Rodando: the voice settings, with the natural or aeronautical style, the report every 15 minutes, the system or premium voice and the quota by plan of 0, 15, 60 and 240 minutes
What it does
The system voice works offline and costs nothing on any plan. The premium voice, more natural, reads the alerts, the report and the answers; it brings minutes a month by plan, renews on the 1st and each pilot chooses whether to use it. The style, natural or aeronautical, and how often the report comes are set on the same sheet.
What it does not do
When the minutes run out, or if the connection fails, the system voice carries on with the same words: an alert never depends on the premium voice.

No coverage

If the network drops, it carries on with what it saved, and says so.

Rodando offline: the band «Sin datos desde las 17:42», the alert that traffic, new NOTAMs and Kp are off, and the wind and the light with their saved time
What it does
When the shoot starts, the zones, the frequencies, the forecast, the light and the checklist are saved on the device. If the connection drops, a band says since when there has been no data, every figure shows its age, and checklist ticks are sent on their own when the network returns.
What it does not do
Without a connection the traffic and new NOTAMs stop arriving, and the traffic disappears from the map instead of freezing. The base map is whatever the browser has saved.

The Aerset app

Aerset on your phone and on your iPad

It installs on iPhone, iPad and Android and links to your studio with a code the studio issues: no second password. What you check in the field is read on the phone; creating and editing stay in the browser.

The app’s “Today” tab, with the day’s shoot and its checklist

The day, before you set off

Today’s shoot with its checklist, the documents that expire soonest and anything this phone still has to send. Lines you tick with no signal are saved on the phone and sent automatically when the connection comes back.

The app’s “Fly here” tab, showing the zones over the phone’s position

“Fly here”, wherever you are

ENAIRE’s UAS zones at the phone’s own position, what each one requires in its own words, the forecast for the hour, aerodromes and protected areas. Every reading carries its date, and ENAIRE’s own viewer still has the final word.

A community spot’s card in the app

The walk to a spot

You record the walk from where you park, with the phone in your pocket and the screen off. When you stop, the route is uploaded to the spot’s card for whoever comes next.

Closed beta

What you are actually paying for

The rules change. So does the catalogue.

Aerset maintains a shared catalogue of the filings a drone flight needs in Spain and applies each entry only to the flights it affects, by location, time and equipment. When the rules change, it is updated once and reaches everybody — nobody has to find out on their own. Every entry shows its official source and when it was reviewed, and you can switch it off or add your own.
