FAQ
What is SkyCompanion and who is the app for?
SkyCompanion simplifies drone compliance and improves flight safety by combining all necessary information for drone pilots in one single app and by automating documentation.
Details: SkyCompanion supports you in safe and compliant flight preparation, during missions, and in post-flight review. On its map, you see geo-zones (a.k.a. no-fly-zones), current airspace advisories (including NOTAMs), weather data, and nearby air traffic including remote IDs. You can plan missions with location and time and automatically document them as a PDF report. This way you have all essential information for drone operations in one app – for both private and professional drone pilots.

Does SkyCompanion show me where I am allowed to fly?
Yes. SkyCompanion shows drone pilots where they are allowed to fly and where they are not. It displays geozones and restricted airspace that limit or prohibit drone flying with distinctive, colorful markings on the map.
Details: Geo-zones are geographical areas in which regulations and restrictions apply for the operation of drones, e.g. hospitals, industrial areas or nature reserves. In SkyCompanion you can display geo-zones on the map and find detailed information for the geo-zones in your mission area. Furthermore, restricted airspaces are displayed in which drone operations may also be limited, e.g. airport control zones. This helps you quickly assess whether a flight in your desired area is allowed and under what conditions.

Can I log flights and document them as PDF?
Yes. SkyCompanion automatically generates mission reports as PDF with relevant mission data.
Details: For each mission, you can create a PDF flight protocol by tapping the export button on the mission ribbon. The protocol includes key mission details, affected geozones, relevant NOTAMs in the area, and selected weather metrics (min/max values). This makes documentation, approvals and audits easier – especially for professional use.

Does SkyCompanion inform me about airspace restrictions (NOTAMs)?
Yes. SkyCompanion shows relevant airspace notices and restrictions from official publications on the map (e.g. ED-R) and current NOTAMs in readable language.
Details: NOTAMs (Notice to Air Missions) provide information about temporary changes in airspace, e.g., short-term closures or special activities. SkyCompanion links your mission area with current NOTAMs and displays them on the map with essential details. We provide to you both the official NOTAMs with the common aviation abbreviations as well as an enhanced version in clear, readable language. This gives you an overview of temporary restrictions already during planning.

Does SkyCompanion warn me about other air traffic?
Yes, SkyCompanion issues warnings when air traffic approaches your mission area.
Details: If you have defined a mission area on the SkyCompanion map and an aircraft approaches it, you will receive a visual warning in form of an orange flashing box in the relevant compass direction. These warnings appear when the foreign aircraft is within 5,000 m of your mission area and has a maximum altitude difference of 1,500 m.

What is the quality of the data in SkyCompanion?
We only use highest quality data from official registers and established primary sources, regularly updated for our users.
Details: SkyCompanion provides the most comprehensive geo-zones in the market, which have been assembled meticulously from official authority registers. Weather data is provided by the German Weather Service (DWD). Live air traffic data is derived directly from aircraft transponder signals – aggregated by the worldwide largest tracking network ADSB Exchange. NOTAMs are received from official ICAO publications. This way you get robust and practical information for your flight preparation.
Remarks: Currently, data availability is limited to Germany; availability and topicality of the data may be temporarily limited due to technical or other reasons.

Does SkyCompanion work offline?
Yes, key functions like mission planning are available offline; live data (e.g., NOTAMs, weather, traffic) require an internet connection like in any other data related app, too.
Details: You can plan missions, use saved map areas, and prepare flights without a connection. However, without internet, live information is not updated: uncached map date, current weather, live traffic, new NOTAMs. For final pre-flight checks, we recommend going online in SkyCompanion to ensure you have the latest data.
