# Photo spots: where to fly

> A map of viewpoints, waterfalls, coast, mountains, heritage sites and more, with the airspace status and the forecast of each place.

**Free**

Looking for where to fly? **Photo spots** (Tools → Photo spots) is a map of places worth filming from the air:

- viewpoints, waterfalls and lakes, coast, mountains and nature;
- heritage sites, bridges and dams, city landmarks and countryside;
- abandoned places and flying fields for drones and model aircraft.

## Everything you need about a spot

Open a spot to see a photo (from Wikimedia Commons, with its author and licence), the **airspace status** from the [no-fly zone map](https://droneweatherforecast.app/features/no-fly-zone-map), **directions** in your maps app and **Forecast here**, which opens the weather for that exact place. Save the spots you like to find them again.

## About two million places worldwide

The map is built from OpenStreetMap and Wikidata. The 100,000 best-known spots are stored in the app and appear even offline; zoom in and the map loads every spot of the area.

## Share your own spots

Signed-in pilots can suggest a spot with a photo; every suggestion is reviewed before it appears for everyone. A pilot can also mark a spot as secret: the map shows it a few hundred metres away from the real place, and only **Pro** users see the exact location.
