How to check airspace before flight

Last updated: 21.07.2026

Airspace is not uniform — each coordinate has its own rules. Proper verification combines the official UAS map, active NOTAMs and any local approvals.

Key information

Start from exact coordinates, not the city name.
Consult the Romania UAS map (ROMATSA data) for static rules.
Check NOTAMs for planned date, time and altitude.
Identify nearby CTRs, aerodromes and military zones.
Confirm on official sources on flight day, not only in advance.

What this means for you

Airspace verification is a repeated process, not a one-off action. Drone Log helps with steps 1–3 (map, NOTAM, context); you confirm on official sources before take-off.

After reading the steps, check if you can fly on the exact point or explore the flight zones map. If the zone needs coordination, see the approval request.
