No heliport precedent — typically the binding gate for rooftop and hospital pads.
Obstruction clearance
High obstacle within 0.5 nm — conflicts with the expanded footprint and 8:1 approach

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.

GROUND 1210ftROOFTOP 1228ftbldg ~18ftFAA FILED 1275ft

The FAA record places this pad at 1275 ft. USGS terrain plus the building put the actual rooftop at 1228 ft — a -47 ft difference the federal record doesn’t carry.

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.
