Brandenburg and eastern Germany catch interference spilling west from the Baltic and Poland.
Check the live reading above and open the map. FLYAWAY reads GPS accuracy from the aircraft over Brandenburg and refreshes every few minutes.
When the reading is high, treat GPS near Brandenburg as unreliable: keep the drone in sight, be ready to fly manually, and do not rely on return-to-home. When it is severe, do not fly.
Brandenburg and eastern Germany catch interference spilling west from the Baltic and Poland.
Brandenburg is the German state encircling Berlin, a low-lying inland region of lakes, farmland and forest set back from the Baltic coast. It lies roughly 560 km from Kaliningrad, the source most commonly cited in regional interference reporting. Its inland position places it toward the gentler edge of the affected area rather than in the exposed coastal zone to its north.
Baltic GPS interference has been publicly reported since 2022 and intensified through 2023 and 2024, with authorities across the region raising concerns and Kaliningrad named most frequently as the source. As an inland region south of the coast, Brandenburg falls within the broad area this reporting covers while sitting away from the more heavily affected shoreline.
Surrounding Berlin, Brandenburg is a region of logistics, agriculture and manufacturing, including the Tesla gigafactory, where surveying, precision farming and freight increasingly rely on GNSS. As these ground applications depend on accurate positioning, interference reaching the region, even in a milder inland form, can affect the work, so awareness of regional conditions is worthwhile.
