Aviation lighting can be a surprisingly complex area of wind and building development, and developers must consider ways to minimise light pollution while adhering to aviation safety requirements. We have been completing aviation lighting assessments for more than 15 years across numerous countries and development types, so you can trust us to help your project meet the regulatory lighting requirements in timeframes to meet your planning deadlines.
Tall structures, such as wind turbines and buildings, can present a collision risk for aircraft. Collision risks are generally managed by doing two things: 1) limiting the height of a wind turbine or building; and/or 2) installing aviation lighting. There are many types of lighting that can be utilised for aviation safety purposes, with variables including intensity, colour, flash rate and light spectrum, so it is essential the correct lighting is chosen. The overall lighting requirement will be based on the severity of the impact and the guidance applicable at your location.
How is aviation lighting considered?
The requirement for aviation lighting may be determined by assessing your wind or building development against Obstacle Limitation Surfaces, Instrument Flight Procedures and low flying zones. There may also be a legal requirement for lighting if the development’s height exists above the mandatory legal limit, and in some sensitive locations, there may be additional reasons for aviation lighting requests.
How can we help?
We understand the principles of aviation lighting so we can quickly and efficiently inform you whether lighting is likely to be required for your development, meaning you can start thinking about any implications for the design of your development or impacts it may create. We can subsequently manage any consultation that is required, which may include discussions regarding the design, location, number and types of lights that are required.
