Description

To accelerate AAM maturity and address the needs of the mature state for UAM, this SBIR effort addresses the need for a capability to: (1)nbsp; assess from historical data the traffic patterns and needs of GA traffic, and (2) assess, in real-time, the patterns-of-life for GA activity at low altitudes in urban environments, so as to geofence those regions and protect both GA and UAM traffic from anomalous events.nbsp; The Innovation Laboratory proposes to develop an enabling technology that assists geofencing between GA and UAM vehicles, for instance, eVTOLs in urban environments.nbsp; With this innovation, the patterns-of-life data for GA traffic can become an asset for UAM airspace operational planners and USS providers monitoring UAM airspace constraints.
