Prior approval through SARPAS may be necessary depending on flight altitude, operational area, and proximity to airport-controlled sectors.

Geofencing Controls

Many commercial drone systems utilize geofencing measures designed to enhance aviation safety near airports through alerts, altitude limitations, or authorization requirements.
