DroniX

Create an app that will enable small drone operators to know more about specific weather parameters, local terrain and no fly zones within a five-mile radius of their GPS location.

We created mobile app that receives GPS coordinates from a drone, sends that data to our API which uses other APIs data to evaluate the probability of safe flight of the drone which is shown to the user as a percentage.

The app also show current weather data conditions nearby the drone, like Humidity, Wind speed, Visibility, Wind direction and Temperature.

It also shows all nearby no-fly zones and other drones. When the drone goes near a no-fly zone, approaches another nearby drone or even heads to the direction of another drone the user gets notified about that events.

We combine all this weather data, no-fly zones data, distance and direction of other drones to evaluate the probability of safe flight in that area.
