Description

AirMap is the leading airspace and dataflow automation company serving the drone economy. AirMap connects airspace authorities, enterprise operators, and industry developers with digital solutions for scaling safe and efficient drone operations in low-altitude airspace. AirMap’s UTM and U-space solutions are deployed in partnership with the Air Navigation Service Providers (ANSPs) of the Czech Republic, Japan, Singapore, Switzerland, the United States, and AirMap is available in over 30 countries. The company serves a global community of over 300,000 pilots and 2,500 registered developers. AirMap is committed to advancing drone enablement through global research initiatives, including NASA-UTM, the European Network of U-space Demonstrators, and the U.S. DoT UAS Integration Pilot Program and UTM Pilot Program.   The primary objective of this Phase II contract is to work with the USAF's "Agility Prime" program to provide AirMap's best in class UTM platform to assist DoD operators in flying their sUAS' and develop an "airspace system architecture" for the vehicles to fly within. Given the commercial viability of AirMap's solution, this project is highly feasible and will bring immediate value to the USAF and DoD at large.
