Air MapAirMap is a California-based drone industry company improving low-altitude-airspace infrastructure to help drone operators can fly safely and legally.
AirmapAirMap is a California basedCalifornia-based technology company developing a low-altitude airspace administration platform for Unmanned aircraftAircraft System Traffic Management (UTM). The technology provides drones with the up-to-date airspace information so that drone operators can plan and adapt flight plans to local events, restrictions, and even changes in weather around them. The company co-operates with local authorities to manage and regulate safe zones and pathways for drone operation. As of June 2019, AirmapAirMap has its services deployed in countries like Japan, Germany, United States, and Switzerland.
AirmapAirMap was founded in 2015 and is headquartered in Santa Monica, California. On December 7, 2021, AirmapAirMap was acquired by Droneup, LLC, and the terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
AirmapAirMap offers an airspace management platform built to handle the process of airspace rule definition and flight approvals for air navigation service providers, intended to reduce the process of approval from days to minutes, through a single software platform capable of integrating into existing ATC systems. The system is capable of automating approvals to help ATC staff focus on other problems; is capable of updating andcan automatically pushingpush new rules to operators with the procedures necessarytonecessary to fly compliant; and it is capable of, through these near-real-time compliance and automated management tocan improve safety, including improving the situational awareness of a specific airspace.
AirmapAirMap's airpsaceairspace management platform is marketed towardstoward use cases for commercial enterprises, where they can use drones for the protection of assets and use the software for commercial drone flight planning, including planning, requesting flight approvals, and receivereceiving the approval to ensure a drone's flight path remains clear. ThisThese measures can reduce in-air conflicts with live traffic alerts and ensure drone safety. As well, itIt is also marketed towardstoward military forces, where AirmapAirMap's tools can help them manage UAS traffic over sensitive locations. AirmapAirMap also offers ISR tools for soldiers to give them visual intelligence and real-time insights to help them make informed and independent real-time decisions.
AirmapAirMap's UAS traffic management platform is a software suite of softwaredeveloped for the safe operation of drone fleets and management of UAS pilots. This software is intended to help users protect property, approve flight requests, and inspect assets remotely. Further, the software can be augmented and integrated with existing software solutions through a range of APIs offered by AirmapAirMap.

Airmap’s U-Space is a platform with a set of interconnected services that provide digital registration, identification, geo-awareness for drone operators, and airspace authorities. Airmap uses multiple data sources to create geo-fenced markers to represent legally safe and restricted areas for drone operation. AirMap has information about UAV ( Unmanned Air Vehicles) laws in over 20 countries. Restricted areas include populated areas, airports, military bases, and bird sanctuary zones. With registration and identification of drones, it can provide real-time traffic of unmanned vehicles in a selected area.
Airmap develops an application for iOS and Android operating systems for DJI drone operators to check detailed information about their airspace. The map overlay provides an easy to use and detailed view of safe and restricted zones in the area. The application allows drone operators a way to get authorization for drone operation in urban areas. The authorization requests include information like fly zone area, altitude restriction, device, and personal information, and duration of the flight.
The company also operates a web-based interactive map with geo-fenced areas. As of June 2019, the map contains detailed drone airspace safety zones in the United States, Germany, and Switzerland. The map is hosted on app.airmap.io.

Built for airports, AirBoss is a platform intended to create more efficiencies in airport operation, including reducing the cost and manpower for conducting runway, building, and plane inspections, by creating automated inspections. This is achieved through real-time imaging in 2D and 3D, allowing users to identify surface issues with runways, buildings, and planes.
