Drone OPS Mission relies on third-party datasets and APIs for weather, airspace and mapping. This page lists each source used, its licence, and a link to the official terms. The attribution notices shown on the site's screens and exports come from this same registry (src/lib/attributionRegistry.ts), to ensure they stay consistent wherever third-party data appears.
This page is provided in English for convenience; attribution notices and licence names are given in their original form.
Weather and airspace data shown on the site is always reworked (threshold calculation, cross-checking with the drone profile and the regulatory scenario, 3D rendering) — Drone OPS Mission neither resells nor redistributes any third-party data layer separately from its own features.
Forecasts are computed by Open-Meteo from, among others, Météo-France's AROME/ARPEGE models. The values displayed are reworked (aggregation, thresholds, cross-checking with the drone profile) — they are never a raw redistribution of Météo-France data.
https://www.data.gouv.fr/fr/datasets/donnees-dobservation-meteo-france/The airspace layer is available to all profiles, free and paid, in order to respect the clause against exclusively commercial use of the data itself. Paid features concern the regulatory cross-checking (weather + drone + GO/NO-GO decision), not access to the OpenAIP layer.
https://www.openaip.netAddress autocompletion relies on the Géoplateforme (IGN) geocoding service, backed by the Base Adresse Nationale. No address data is stored on the server — the search queries the API live from the browser.

Each park has its own regulatory order, with no drone-specific threshold or exemption available in this data: the status displayed is a general indication, not a regulatory certification — check the order of the park concerned and its exemption procedure before any flight over a park core.

The severity classification shown for each zone type (blocking/marginal/informative) is an internal analysis, being legally validated zone by zone — never a regulatory certification until marked as validated.

As for protected areas, the severity displayed is being legally validated, never a regulatory certification until marked as validated.

Only the metadata (number, title, validity dates, IFR/VFR/AIRAC indicators) is reproduced here — the PDF documents are neither reproduced nor hosted, only referenced through their source link. Any display must show the date of the last update of the list (source_update_date field), in addition to this notice.

The site's GO/NO-GO engine cites the exact article for each rule evaluated; if in doubt, refer directly to the texts published by the DGAC and EASA, as regulations may change between two site updates.
The data and analyses provided by Drone OPS Mission are decision support. They do not replace the official regulatory check that the remote pilot must carry out before every flight, nor the primary sources cited above.
