This app is structured to automatically capture your location and identify if you’re within a five mile radius of a major US airport. If you’re within a drone no-fly zone, the app will ask if you have received approval from the encroached air traffic controller (ATC). This app allows drone pilots and operators to conduct a thorough pre-flight inspection on a go / no-go basis. This app is completely customizable and can be tailored to any drone operator’s needs.
### Turf, TopoJSON, and Mapbox Integration
This app was integrated to include [Turf](http://turfjs.org/) & [TopoJSON](https://github.com/mbostock/topojson) JavaScript libraries that utilize geospatial calculations within Fulcrum to display [Mapbox’s](https://www.mapbox.com/drone/no-fly/) drone no-fly zone layer.

What if I don’t have those skills available on my team?
We offer professional and managed services tailored to your needs. Whether you prefer training your team for independence or having us manage ongoing requirements, we can help.
How “real-time” are you?
Fulcrum provides automatic synchronization to share records between the mobile device and server. In “real-time,” this syncing occurs within seconds to a couple of minutes as long as there’s an internet connection.
Can Fulcrum connect to my sub-meter Bluetooth GPS unit?
Yes. Fulcrum uses your mobile device’s GPS location by default. When you connect a Bluetooth GPS receiver, it replaces your device’s coordinates with more accurate ones from the GPS receiver.
Can we do a proof of concept or pilot?
Absolutely! Contact us to set up a custom plan to get started.
Does Fulcrum work completely offline?
Fulcrum is built to function without an internet connection. When you reconnect to the internet, it will automatically sync your records and update the mobile app with new data from the server.
