Hello,

France has recently implemented "major sensitive zones" to protect raptors in mountainous regions.
Theses zones are depicted in pdf files and a kml file is downloadable on this webpage :
Would it be possible to have these areas appear in the Skydemon map?

Best regards

Antoine des Courtis

I don't think they are referenced in the AIP, they are only known via this page : https://www.stac.aviation-civile.gouv.fr/fr/zsm and this file for whole France : https://www.stac.aviation-civile.gouv.fr/sites/default/files/france.kml#
The status changes every month and they are activated or deactivated depending on the status of the birds (nesting or not, presence or not of fledglings).
