Clear Path

Preliminary Screening

Preliminary airspace screening before a project advances

Catch airspace concerns earlier in planning

Clear Path gives planning and engineering teams an early look at likely protected-surface conflicts, documentation needs, and follow-on review paths.

• Identify likely concerns before design, acquisition, or construction decisions harden.
• Use a repeatable workflow instead of informal spreadsheet-only screening.
• Export a concise preliminary record for internal review.

Who this is for

Planning, engineering, municipal, airport, development, and consultant teams.

• Municipal and planning teams reviewing early site feasibility.
• Engineering teams that need a first-pass airspace conflict screen.
• Airport and development teams preparing for coordination conversations.

What Clear Path does

Clear Path supports preliminary obstruction screening, protected-surface visualization, and report-ready planning context for supported criteria paths.

What Clear Path helps with

• Identify likely airspace or protected-surface concerns during early site review.
• Compare supported criteria outputs with a clear status for unsupported or dependency-gated areas.
• Keep a structured preliminary record for internal review and coordination.

What Clear Path does not do

• Does not issue FAA, DoD, airport sponsor, engineering, surveying, legal, or other official approval.
• Does not replace formal FAA OE/AAA filing, airport coordination, sponsor review, DoD review, or professional engineering judgment.
• Does not treat unsupported, dependency-gated, or partial criteria as clearance, compliance, or a no-hazard finding.

Supported workflow summary

1. Load or enter the relevant airport/runway and object inputs.

2. Screen the proposal against supported criteria and review warnings or omissions.

3. Share the preliminary report with the appropriate professional or authority review path.

Review before relying on results

Clear Path outputs are preliminary screening and decision-support materials. They do not replace FAA, DoD, airport sponsor, command, engineering, surveying, legal, safety, environmental, or other official approval processes.
