Helicopter Landing Site Survey Management
The survey and documentation platform behind landing site decisions at HEMS and specialist helicopter operators, from air ambulance to VVIP.
Aligned to ICAO Annex 14 Vol II · Doc 9261 · UK CAA CAP 1264 · CAP 3043
Trusted by UK air ambulance operators, helipad funders and specialist aviation services
The quality of a helicopter landing site survey directly affects the safety of every crew member and patient we carry. HeliSafe Surveyor has given us a platform that matches the professionalism we expect in every other aspect of our operations.
Site survey
Record obstacles, zone geometry, approach and departure sectors and surface condition against a structured template, on site or from the office. Every survey carries its own revision history, so you can show what was known and when.
HLS plates
Generate the site plate directly from the survey data, version controlled and reissued the moment the site changes. No redrawing, no divergence between the survey record and the document in the cockpit.
Crew training
Courseware for crews and site surveyors, structured to the ICAO heliport framework that national heliport standards are built from, with completion recorded against each individual. Available to operators alongside the platform or on its own.
Aircraft performance Beta
Take-off and landing decision point calculations and Category A profile data are held per aircraft type, each figure traceable to the rotorcraft flight manual table it came from. Nothing is estimated and nothing is inherited from another type.
In development and not yet generally available. The traceability described here is how the module is built, not a goal it is working towards.
Landing site standards begin with ICAO: Annex 14 Volume II and the Heliport Manual, Doc 9261. National and regional frameworks are built on that foundation: CAP 1264 and CAP 3043 in the United Kingdom, and the EASA air operations rules across Europe. HeliSafe Surveyor structures survey evidence to the ICAO framework, so it holds its meaning across borders, and presents it against the guidance your own authority works to.
The determination that a site is adequate for a given operation rests with the operator, under Regulation (EU) 965/2012, retained in UK law and applied across the EASA member states. That responsibility cannot be transferred to software, and HeliSafe Surveyor is not represented as approved by any authority. What it does is make the determination defensible: structured, dated, attributable, and traceable to the standard it was assessed against.
A twenty minute call, using a landing site you already operate to.
