Identification of Safe Helicopter Landing Zones and an Overview of Heliports in Serbia

Keywords:
Helicopter, Safe Landing Zone, Heliport, Terrain Slope

Abstract:
Helicopters are most commonly used in inaccessible areas during various operations, whether civilian or military. This paper aims to provide an overview of existing research on the automatic generation of safe helicopter landing zones and to define the necessary parameters for their application in the territory of the Republic of Serbia. The paper also presents the present-day state of designated helicopter landing areas in Serbia. Notably, with 12 heliports, Serbia is among the leading countries in the region for heliport infrastructure. Additionally, the paper outlines the legal frameworks governing this subject in Serbia, the European Union, and the United States. Finally, the paper proposes parameters that define safe helicopter landing zones. Research of this kind could aid decision-making processes during emergencies in the Republic of Serbia and other countries.
