The new Helicopter Landing Zone template is available for download from Arcgis.com.  The Helicopter Landing Zone template is an Esri Defense template for intelligence analysis. The Helicopter Landing Zone template contains data and walk-through exercises to teach you how to use ArcGIS tools to create standard Helicopter Landing Zone products.

The template includes a map template and feature templates for typical features collected for Helicopter Landing Zone studies.  These features include possible Helicopter Landing Zone areas, their dimensions, and a variety of obstruction types.  The obstruction features are divided into point obstructions, such as trees and flag poles, linear obstructions, such as ditches, power lines, and walls, and area obstructions such as buildings and patches of trees.
