Publish UAVs and See Traffic

By using the POST /uav endpoint, you can publish one or many UAVs to SafeSky. This allows your UAVs to be seen by manned aviation and simultaneously see traffic in their vicinity. This ensures enhanced safety during your flights.

Example Request:

POST /uav?show_nearby_traffic=true
Content-Type: application/json

[
    {
        "id": "UAV123",
        "latitude": 50.69378,
        "longitude": 4.39201,
        "altitude": 180
    },
    {
