Site plan software for drone light shows & fireworks displays

Plan the show on the real site.
Hand the crew one link.

Draw flight areas and firing positions on satellite imagery — restricted zones, geofences, and NFPA 1123 fallout radii are drawn for you. Position start grids, mark parking and safety points, fill in the production details — then share a link anyone on site can open on their phone, or print a permit-ready PDF site plan.

Look like the pro you are

Clients and venues see a branded site plan and a polished share page — not a screenshot with arrows drawn on it.

Be compliant, provably

Pilot and visual observers on record, flight conditions documented, separation distances on the map. When the FAA or the fire marshal asks, you have the sheet.

Plan in minutes, not evenings

Auto-drawn safety rings, start-grid drone math, and company defaults that pre-fill every new plan. Execute faster too — the crew self-serves from one link.

Track every show

Every plan lives in your dashboard — on a map, with its date, share link, and production details. Next season, start from what worked.

Geofences & fallout zones, drawn for you

Flight areas get restricted-zone, soft-fence and hard-fence rings that follow every edit. Pyro positions get NFPA 1123 fallout radii from shell size.

Start grids that do the math

Drop a start grid, set its size and rotation, and see how many drones it holds. Place as many grids and flight areas as the show needs.

Site logistics on the map

Mark crew and truck parking, pilot position, audience center, security posts, road closures — every icon comes with a printed key.

Production sheet built in

Contacts, arrival times, run of show, parking instructions, show cue. Who flew and who observed — your compliance record rides with the plan.

One link for the whole crew

Share a read-only link that opens on any phone: the map on one tab, the show sheet with tap-to-call contacts on the other.

Permit-ready PDF

A3 site plan with your logo and colors, flight conditions, client instructions, map key, and an optional QR code to the live plan — ready for the AHJ or venue packet.

From empty map to show-ready in three steps

1

Draw the site

Search the address, draw the flight area, drop the start grid, mark parking and safety points.

2

Add the details

Set flight conditions and drone counts, fill in contacts, times, and the run of show.

3

Share or print

Send the crew the live link, hand the client the PDF. Everyone works from the same plan.

The next show starts with a site plan.
