What’s that drone near my home?
You hear the familiar buzz, look outside and spot a drone over the next street. Where is it going? Is it passing through, or coming back? A receiver at home gives those everyday questions a place to start.
Explore this use case Schools & campusesA clearer picture beyond the school gate.
A drone near the playing field can leave reception, site staff and school leaders answering the same question with different information. Give them a clear place to check what has been received around the campus.
Explore this use case Drone clubs & flying sitesUnderstand your flying site and contribute to the network.
A club receiver turns a familiar flying site into a local listening point. Members can explore received tracks, compare observations with their own flying records and see how their station contributes.

Give the people looking after a site a clearer picture.
Councils & civic buildings
Put reports around public places in context.
A report can arrive from a resident, a receptionist or a grounds team. A received flight record gives council staff a consistent starting point for understanding activity around the places they manage.
Explore this use case National buildings & landmarksAdd an observed airspace view to site awareness.
Prominent buildings attract visitors, events, maintenance work and photography. A local receiver adds a view of received drone activity that the people responsible for the site can review together.
Explore this use case Emergency servicesMore context for the people assessing a report.
When a drone report reaches a team, time and location matter. Layer400 brings received drone tracks and aircraft context into one view, helping the reviewer understand the observations available.
Explore this use case Hospitals & healthcare campusesA shared view around a busy, important site.
Hospital grounds bring together staff, patients, visitors and a busy estates team. A received drone track can help the designated reviewer put a report in the context of the campus and its daily activity.

Stately homes & estates
Understand activity across house, gardens and grounds.
The house, formal gardens, visitor grounds and event spaces each have a different rhythm. A local receiver helps an estate team understand reported drone activity in relation to the places it looks after.
Explore this use case Events & venuesKeep the event diary and the sky in the same conversation.
An event team already coordinates arrivals, contractors, filming and the programme. A local receiver adds received drone activity to the information the duty team can inspect during the day.
Explore this use case Farms & rural landPut an overhead sighting on the map.
From the farmyard, a distant drone can be hard to place. A receiver at the property brings received activity onto a map, helping you understand where the recorded flight goes in relation to the places you work.
Explore this use case Businesses & commercial sitesTurn a site report into a useful handover.
A receptionist spots a drone. A facilities manager asks where it went. A colleague needs the details later. Layer400 gives the team a shared received record to work from.
Explore this use case Infrastructure, ports & utilitiesConnect site awareness across a complex footprint.
A large site can make an overhead report difficult to place. Local listening points and a shared map help the responsible team relate received drone activity to the working area being discussed.

- Give your place a listening point
Choose a supported receiver installation and link it to your account. It contributes local observations to Layer400’s shared map.
- Look at the activity in context
Inspect the position, trail and reception time. Compare the received record with what you saw and what was planned at the site.
- Bring relevant activity to your attention
Where area alerts are enabled, define a detection zone and choose available notifications. Open an event to understand its time and movement.
- Return to the record
Use eligible playback and public track links to review an observation or make a handover easier to follow.
Area alerts · limited rollout. Account and channel availability apply. Email, opt-in browser push and signed webhooks have separate delivery states; notification timing depends on the rule, quiet hours and delivery channel.
