Directory API for helicopter & passenger drone landing sites

Overview

The Helipaddy Sites API provides access to a curated directory of helicopter and passenger drone landing sites. Key endpoints include location-based site searches (via coordinates or address), detailed site retrieval (with amenities like fuel availability, parking, and operational hours), and filtering by drone compatibility or helicopter type. Responses are in JSON format. Use cases include aviation navigation apps integrating landing spot data, drone operators planning routes, emergency services locating nearby helipads, and luxury travel platforms offering helicopter transfer options.
