3D Interactive Interface and Real-World Scenarios

To ensure intuitive and efficient flight planning, Private Bee’s GPS4D integrates a powerful 3D visualization interface. Built with CesiumJS and BlenderGIS, this tool displays real-time trajectories, restricted zones, and weather data—empowering both autonomous systems and human pilots.

From emergency helicopter routes to drone deliveries, the platform supports concrete and high-stakes scenarios through intelligent rendering and contextual navigation cues.


Interactive 3D Map Viewer

Users can explore the airspace in an immersive, layered environment with real-time updates:

  • CesiumJS-based viewer for dynamic altitude and terrain modeling
  • Color-coded overlays for no-fly zones, religious sites, weather hazards
  • Trajectory layers for active flights and emergency corridors

This visual system enhances situational awareness and enables clear decision-making, whether in autonomous or pilot-assisted modes.

Use Case: Emergency Helicopter Route (ENSTA → Orly)

For critical flights, the system calculates the most efficient and secure route in real time:

  • Avoids buildings and prohibited airspace
  • Highlights alternate landing zones in case of emergency
  • Prioritizes regulated airways for optimal ATC compliance

Both direct and contingency paths are computed with minimal delay, even under changing conditions.

Use Case: Drone Delivery to Urban Balcony

The GPS4D interface defines flight paths for drone missions with precise altitude and location targets:

  • Safe corridor navigation through urban airspace
  • Landing zone detection (e.g., balcony, rooftop platform)
  • Dynamic rerouting in case of weather or airspace conflict

Operators can visualize mission routes and override trajectories if needed.

Human-in-the-Loop Interfaces

Whether using augmented reality headsets or mobile tablets, human pilots and supervisors retain full awareness and control:

  • HUD (Head-Up Display) options for immersive guidance
  • Tablet UI for mission planning and trajectory validation
  • Optional AR/MR integration using devices like Epson Moverio

The interface adapts to the pilot’s context, ensuring ergonomic and efficient control in every scenario.
