Summary
Under Real Decreto 517/2024, drone operations inside the 2.5km safety zone of Helipuerto de Villaverde del Río (Sevilla) are strictly prohibited from the surface level up unless an operational coordination agreement is signed with the regional management.
Positioned along the Guadalquivir river basin, this helipad serves as a vital tactical facility for the Andalusian emergency infrastructure, supporting emergency medical evacuations via CES 061 and seasonal wildland fire monitoring under Plan INFOCA.
Key Requirements & Restrictions
- Restrictions: Airspace is fully restricted from 0 meters AGL upward within a 2.5km radius to safeguard rapid-response medical and environmental patrol flight vectors.
- Permission Steps: Remote pilots must establish and sign a formal Operational Coordination Agreement with the Centro de Emergencias Sanitarias 061 / Plan INFOCA infrastructure management before any launch.
- Requirements: Launching, landing, or operating a ground station on municipal public lands requires a direct land-use permit from the Villaverde del Río local town hall.
- Important Notes: Its proximity to the Guadalquivir river corridor demands strict environmental compliance to protect nesting waterfowl and local migratory avifauna protected under regional directives.
- Physical Hazards: The open river valley landscape is heavily lined with overhead high-voltage power lines and large agricultural irrigation networks, creating localized risk of compass interference and physical obstruction.
