Sectoral plan on transport, aviation infrastructure section (SIL)

The sectoral plan on transport, aviation infrastructure section (SIL) is the federal planning and coordination tool for the civil aviation. Therein the goals and objectives for the infrastructure of Switzerland's civil aviation are bindingly established for authorities. Concerning the individual aerodromes it determines the purpose, the claimed area, the broad use, the exploitation and the conditions for operation. It also represents the impact on space and the environment (Verordnung über die Infrastruktur der Luftfahrt VIL Art. 3a). Thus, the SIL is the basis for approval of the construction and operation of all infrastructure of civil aviation: national airports, regional aerodromes, co-use civil- military aerodromes, airfields, heliports, mountain landing sites and air traffic control systems.The SIL consists of two parts: the concept of the general goals and objectives, and an object part, with the specific requirements for each facility.
Reserved zones for airport installations

Designated area in which the land must be kept free for future airport installations. Plot-specific representation with a line on a large-scale plan. Constructional changes that contradict this purpose are not permitted. Limited effect of five years maximum, with a potential extension of up to three years. Legal basis (CAA Art. 37n Para. 1): “By virtue of its office or at the request of the airport owner, the canton or the local authority, the Federal Office can specify project planning zones for designated areas in order to keep land free for future airport installations ...”
Mountain landing sites: specially designated landing sites situated above 1100 m altitude

Mountain landing sites are landing fields that are located outside an aerodrome at over 1100 m altitude and that have no infrastructure. They are used for instruction and training purposes, and to transport tourists. The authoritative list of mountain landing sites approved by the FOCA with specific additional information is published in the Swiss aeronautical publication in the VFR Manual under AGA 3-3-1. Use of mountain landing sites by fixed-wing aircraft: only if the site is suitable. Use of mountain landing sites by helicopters: outlanding may take place within a reasonable distance, i.e. within a radius of up to 400 m from the point determined by the coordinates within the limits of the topographical description (Swiss Federal Council decision of 7 May 1980). Please note: This is not an official aeronautical data publication. The information provided does not necessarily reflect the latest operational data.
Reflective surfaces near aerodromes

Depending on the angle of the sun's rays, glare caused by reflective surfaces (e.g. solar panels or reflective facades) can become a disturbing source of light for pilots. In the case of planned installations within the relevant areas according to ICAO Annex 14, Vol. I, chapter 5.3.1.3, whose installation area [m2] is greater than 100 m2 and also greater than the distance [m] of the project to the nearest point of an aerodrome runway (e.g. an installation larger than 300 m2 at a distance of 300 m from the nearest point of a runway), possible disruptive glare effects should be investigated and mitigated if necessary to ensure aviation safety. Guidelines for the investigation of planned installations within the relevant areas can be requested from the responsible FOCA section «Aerodromes and air navigation obstacles»: aerodromes@bazl.admin.ch
Safety zone plan

For each airport, a security zone is to be established, which protects the airspace from obstacles. The FOCA will decide in each case whether a safety zone is necessary for air navigation equipment and flight paths. Authoritative for the establishment of safety zones is the cadastre of obstacle limitation surfaces. The safety zones are represented in a zone map, where the location and height of property restrictions are shown. The approved security zone plans are binding upon publication in the cantonal publications and constitute a public property restriction.
SORA - Map for intrinsic ground risk 200m

European unmanned aircraft regulation (EU) 2019/947 Article 11 requires a SORA (Specific Operational Risk Assessment) to be performed for flights which fit into the Specific category of UAS. One part of this risk assessment is to assess the risk to overflown uninvolved people and this map is tailored for the use in this risk assessment methodology. In addition, the map is an estimate of the average distribution of population density derived from Inhabitants (STATPOP) and Employment (STATENT) from the Federal Statistical Office (FSO). Where no swiss data was available, information from the Global Human Settlement Layer (GHSL) of the Euroean Commission was used. The data should be used as a guideline, meaning that discrepancies can be argued accordingly by the applicant in the SORA risk assessment. The extent of the map is anywhere the Federal Office of Civil Aviation has authority to grant UAS authorizations which is within Switzerland and Liechtenstein. Further, the data extends 5 km beyond the Swiss border into the surrounding countries to allow a proper fly-away risk assesment of flights very close to the borders. This map version, with a spatial resolution of 200m × 200m, is suitable for drone flights at altitudes above 50 m (164 ft). Consult FOCA's guidance material for further information.
Residential areas under the Off-Airport Landing Ordinance (AuLaV)

Residential areas are defined in Article 2f of the Off-Airport Landing Ordinance (AuLaV; SR 748.132.3). Residential areas are defined as urban areas or groups of at least ten inhabited buildings, including the area within a radius of 100 metres. Landing in residential areas is prohibited for the following purposes: <ul> <li>Passenger transport for tourist or leisure purposes (Art. 25b AuLaV),</li> <li>Non-commercial flights (Art. 32b AuLaV),</li> <li>Training flights (Art. 34b AuLaV).</li> </ul> Off-Airport landings in residential areas for aerial work purposes must be agreed upon in advance with the competent authority under cantonal law (Art. 31 AuLaV). <br></br> The ARE's "housing estate" dataset forms the basis for identifying and presenting "residential areas" and is updated annually.

Location and adjoining areas of businesses in accordance with the Major Accidents Ordinance in the area of civil aerodromes

These data show the geographical situation and adjoining areas in accordance with Art. 11a para. 2 of the MAO (SR:814.012) within which the construction of new buildings and installations may lead to a significant increase in the risk of a major accident. Building projects located totally or partly in the adjoining area are subject to a consultation procedure with the enforcement authority for risk assessment (Art. 11a para. 3 MAO).
Built-up areas as defined in Swiss civil aviation legislation

In Swiss civil aviation legislation, the term "built-up areas" refers to the definition of areas, in both quantitative terms and with respect to aviation criteria, that is applied in Articles 63 and 65a of the Federal Ordinance of 23 November 1994 on Civil Aviation Infrastructure (SR 748.131.1). A licensing requirement in built-up and non-built-up areas applies for objects with a height of 100 metres or more (or 60 metres or more for high-voltage power lines, wind turbines turbines, slacklines), as well as for the penetration of an obstacle-free zone or a security zone. A registration requirement applies for objects with a height of 60 metres or more in a built-up area, and a height of 25 metres or more in a non-built-up area (or in the case of mobile cranes, a height of 40 metres or more). Owners are required to notify the FOCA in advance of the construction or alteration of such buildings and installations or temporary objects. This vector dataset for Switzerland and the Principality of Liechtenstein is automatically generated from the building plans incorporated in "swissTLM3D" – the Swiss 3D topographic landscape model produced by the Federal Office of Topography (swisstopo) – and is periodically updated.
Sanctuaries for silence and nature for aviation

Sanctuaries for silence and nature are areas of defined dimensions where antrophogenic (man-made) noise sources have been suppressed to a minimum level. The aim of such sanctuaries is a preservation of the diversity of natural sounds and silence for human recreation. Sanctuaries for silence and nature are depicted as "Zones to be avoided" on aeronautical charts and shall be avoided or overflown by motorised aircraft considerably above the minimum flight altitudes according to the Ordinance on the Rules of the Air/ORA, (art. 44) and by the shortest possible flight path.
Erosion risk map for arable land – qualitative classification

Erosion risk map for arable land – qualitative classification (Federal Office for Agriculture) Erosion risk map for arable land in Switzerland in a 2x2-metre grid based on SwissALTI3D and cantonal surface-area data on arable land (status 2021). The map shows the potential qualitative erosion risk. The overall rating is allocated to one of three risk levels (no risk; risk; high risk) without taking account of soil use or management method. The long-term mean soil erosion is calculated on the basis of the universal soil loss equation (USLE).
Noise pollution register for railway systems – emissions

The authoritative railway noise pollution values are defined in the noise pollution register. Both emission and immission values are shown. The fixed emissions Lr,e in [dB(A)] form the basis for determining the permissible immissions as part of noise abatement measures or expansion projects conducted during the day. The actual emissions Lr,e in [dB(A)] were measured based on the actual traffic during the day over the course of one year.
Existence of rail freight traffic systems as per the concept for freight transport by rail

The concept for freight transport by rail is a concept in accordance with Art. 3 of the Swiss Goods Carriage Act (GCarA, SR 742.41) and Art. 13 of the Swiss Spatial Planning Act (SPA, SR 700). The concept defines the most important federal government interests which must be taken into account when planning rail freight traffic systems and also contains an index of the rail freight traffic systems already in place at the time the concept was adopted. These systems are displayed in this map. The contents of the map are not legally binding. When you use the query function, details of the queried system are shown. In the interests of completeness, the map and the query results must be consulted in parallel with the content of the concept for freight transport by rail and the associated explanatory report.
Noise pollution register for railway systems – immissions and noise protection walls

The authoritative railway noise pollution values are defined in the noise pollution register. Both emission and immission values are shown. The permitted noise levels Lr,e in [dB(A)] were fixed by the FOT in a decision. The actual immissions Lr,e in [dB(A)] were measured based on the actual traffic during the night over the course of one year. The built noise protection walls lead to a reduction of immissions. Their effect is taken into account in the immissions.

Available connection types optical fibre FTTB/FTTH

The broadband map gives an overview of the coverage of modern telecommunications networks in Switzerland. The coverage situation is shown in the form of statistical data per grid square (250 x 250 metres). The map shows the number of buildings in which access is offered over an optical fibre connection (as a percentage of building entrances used for residential or commercial purposes according to the Federal Statistical Office). The optical fibre connection extends at least as far as the building (Fibre To The Building FTTB). In some cases the optical fibre connection is brought into the home/business (Fibre To The Home FTTH) via internal cabling. However, this information cannot be shown on this map. Representation of the coverage situation is purely indicative. The actual coverage situation should be determined by making enquiries with the service providers. In this respect, please see the additional information on the 'Number of connection providers' map.
