Flying Spots Field Data Collection Map

Overview

Built for GIS 4690 at the University of Denver in support of my UAS certificate work. The map organizes three feature layers for field collection: flying spots with surface type and LAANC ceilings, linear hazards such as power lines and tree rows, and restricted areas. It is published through a read-only public view layer so the web map can be shared without exposing the editable source data.

Coordinate Reference Systems

Horizontal

WGS 84 / Web Mercator

Methods

• Three-layer data model: flying spots, hazards, restricted areas
• Launch sites record surface type and LAANC ceilings
• Linear hazards digitized as lines (power lines, tree rows)
• Read-only public view layer for sharing

Deliverables

• Field Maps data collection web map
• Public read-only view layer

Key Technical Challenge

Designing a field-ready data model that captures airspace ceilings, surface type, and linear hazards, then sharing the result publicly without opening the editable layers.
