Judging by the comments and likes on your latest FB post, this feature is important for many users in various counties. Definitely a must have from the Polish perspective.

The feature went live last year.

I'm happy to report AUP data in SkyDemon works great and adds great value to your product.

However, MRT routes in Poland (low level military corridors) are not included in the AUP status check in SkyDemon. In reality they are activated by AUP same way as TSAs and TRAs.

See the difference between SkyDemon and PANSA:

Is MRT activation status something you could include in SkyDemon?

I'm not familiar with the PANSA service; which are the MRTs in your screenshot?

That screenshot was taken over the weekend when no MRTs were active to show how the view is quite cluttered on SkyDemon, without filtering out inactive MRTs.

Today a few MRTs are active and the map looks like this:


All active MRTs are published in AUP/UUP. They can be active between certain hours (see the example above - EPMRT011) but unlike Polish TSAs the altitude range of MRTs is fixed. If your data source for AUP airspace filtering contains a list of active MRTs then I believe including them in the filter should be quite easy for your team.

Oh I see, thanks. Unfortunately, it seems that MRTs are not published into the Eurocontrol AUP system, so it is not currently possible for us to indicate their status in SkyDemon.

Hello

SkyDemon is awesome and I'm glad to have such a tool available.

After using it for (more) than two years for VFR flight planning and execution,
I'd have a few suggestions and/or feature requests.
Here is one of these:‌
‌‌
Given the amount of temporary reserved areas within the CZ airspace,
which list is updated on a daily basis (as the MIL OAT flights are planned and acted),
it would be great if a close future version of SkyDemon
would support a download and visualisation of such data.

The source is available from the http://aup.ans.cz/  (free, no login needed)
 (assembled as an official table of truth by the RLP - Czech AMC).

 I'm sure there will be a more suitable machine-readable feed of this data as well, somewhere.‌‌

You can see their web viewer showing the activated restricted area on http://aisview.rlp.cz/ :
see the red-filled polygons - those with just a red outline are the areas themselves but not activated,
and the filled ones are the activated ones.
You can play with the time to see how often these do change.

Without having this feature in SkyDemon, every VFR pilot in CZ (or flying through on VFR)
needs to not only plan in SkyDemon, but also to open the AisView web tool,
and re-plan accordingly.
Of course, while on course (flying), one has to always ask via radio (FIS / Praha Info) on the actual last-minute status,
but that is a normal procedure; having a solid plan prepared in advance would be much better,
 sometimes it is not even possible to divert and fly around. Being able to see it on a first sight in SkyDemon would so great !

thank you,
 adam

Yes, we're working to get this data into your hands as soon as possible.

The feature went live last year. You haven't noticed?
