Abstract: A device can receive information that identifies an airspace voxel that represents a three-dimensional portion of airspace during a particular time period. The device can associate one or more airspace parameters with the airspace voxel. The one or more airspace parameters can represent one or more conditions that relate to flight through the airspace voxel during the particular time period. The device can receive one or more flight parameters regarding a potential flight plan of an aircraft through a plurality of airspace voxels, including the airspace voxel, during the particular time period. The device can analyze the one or more flight parameters and a plurality of airspace parameters, associated with the plurality of airspace voxels, using one or more airspace rules. The device can output a recommendation regarding the potential flight plan based on analyzing the one or more flight parameters and the plurality of airspace parameters.

Abstract: A device can be configured to receive flight data associated with an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), at least some of the flight data being received from the UAV; store the flight data; receive, from a requesting device, a flight data request, the flight data request including information identifying the UAV or a flight of the UAV; determine response data based on the flight data request and based on an entity associated with the requesting device, the response data including a subset of the flight data, which is available to be accessed by the entity; and perform an action associated with the response data.

Abstract: A device can receive obstacle data from a plurality of sources. The obstacle data can include location data associated with obstacles. The device can determine weightings for the obstacles based on the plurality of sources. Each of the weightings can indicate a measure of reliability/accuracy of the information regarding an obstacle. The device can process the obstacle data to associate the obstacles with airspace voxel(s), that represent one or more 3D portions of airspace, based on the location data, receive flight parameters relating to a proposed flight plan of a UAV through airspace represented by a set of airspace voxels, determine whether the set of airspace voxels includes any of the airspace voxel(s), and perform one or more actions to cause a recommendation, regarding the proposed flight plan and based on the determination, to be provided. The recommendation can be based on one or more of the weightings.

Abstract: A device receives network condition information. The network condition information is indicative of network resource availability at a plurality of locations. The device processes the network condition information to associate network resource availability identified in the network condition information with one or more airspace voxels that represent one or more three-dimensional (3D) portions of airspace corresponding to the plurality of locations. The device receives flight parameters relating to a proposed flight plan of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) through airspace represented by a set of airspace voxels, and network performance parameters associated with the proposed flight plan. The device determines that the network resource availability that is associated with the set of airspace voxels fails to satisfy the network performance parameters, and performs one or more actions to enable the UAV to access network resources that satisfy the network performance parameters.

Abstract: A device can be configured to receive a flight request including at least one flight characteristic for an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) flight; identify flight characteristics associated with the flight request; identify a flight guideline associated with the flight request, the flight guideline specifying a limitation for an identified flight characteristic; determine, based on the flight guideline, that one of the identified flight characteristics is a questionable flight characteristic; and/or perform an action based on the questionable flight characteristic.
