No heliport precedent — typically the binding gate for rooftop and hospital pads.
Obstruction clearance
Obstruction within 0.5 nm on the FAA obstacle file

Measured against FAA pad geometry and federal FATO sizing (EB-105). A dimensional pre-screen — site-level validation required, and independent of the underwriting risk score.

Obstructions, exact FATO geometry, surface condition, and downwash exposure require a physical Ground Truth capture — not shown above as measured. A field verification completes the record and writes the measured truth to this facility’s authority.
