The FAA's B4UFLY service provides UAS pilots with information regarding airspace awareness for their operation. Key features of B4UFLY include:
Information about controlled airspace, special use airspace, critical infrastructure, airports, national parks and military training routes
Information about Temporary Flight Restrictions for special events
A clear status indicator that informs the operator whether it is safe to fly or not
For example, an indicator shows that flying in the Special Flight Rules Area around Washington, D.C. is prohibited
The ability to check whether it is safe to fly in different locations by searching for a location
The AirHub B4UFLY Briefing API conforms to and supports AirHub Portal's implementation of the FAA's B4UFLY USS Performance Rules specification which is defined in Section 5 of the LAANC USS Performance Rules. While the ruleset defined pertains specifically to user interface requirements that AirHub Portal complies with, the AirHub B4UFLY Briefing API is the engine behind it.
