Dovepass is a research prototype web tool that checks whether a specific drone flight path in San Francisco is legal, aggregating FAA airspace, temporary restrictions, local parks, stadium events, weather, and drone capabilities. It's interesting for combining multiple regulatory and geospatial data sources into a single path-based clearance check, but remains niche and unpolished.

Target audience: drone hobbyists and commercial operators in San Francisco
