Descrizione del progetto
Volare in alto e in sicurezza con i veicoli di mobilità aerea urbana
Questo progetto di dimostrazione su larga scala SESAR condurrà una serie di dimostrazioni multinazionali con droni e veicoli di mobilità aerea urbana (UAM, urban air mobility), coprendo vari casi d’uso, comprese le operazioni miste. Per garantire l’introduzione sicura della UAM nella regione europea, il progetto Uspace4UAM, finanziato dall’UE, colmerà il divario tra lo sviluppo e la diffusione delle capacità e dei servizi U-space. Il progetto si occuperà di concetti operativi, regolamentazione e standard, costruendo la fiducia in un’integrazione sicura e ordinata del traffico aereo quotidiano UAM. I risultati mostreranno come la regolamentazione e la normazione possano sostenere gli innovatori nella costruzione di una giustificazione economica sostenibile mentre operano in sicurezza in una rete di trasporto multimodale che include servizi di aerotaxi urbani completamente autonomi.
Obiettivo
Aiming to bridge the gap between development and deployment, this VLD project will tackle issues of operational concepts, regulation, and standards, while building confidence in a safe and orderly integration of UAM in every days air traffic. It will do this with a consortium of forward-looking cities and ANSPs, national regulators and EASA, a well experienced UTM provider, as well as eVTOL manufacturers, research centers, and technology providers. A series of well defined, iterative and multi-national demonstrations, both with drones and UAM vehicles will be conducted. They will cover different use cases, including mixed operations, to allow the project to derive critical enablers for a wide set of UAM service applications that can be applied all over Europe.
Uspace4UAM will build on the CORUS project results and on operational and business experience already gathered in operational drone service implementations in Europe. it will study safety cases and their impact on system requirements, and look at how regulation and standardisation can be set up to support innovators to build a sustainable business case while operating safely in a multi-modal transport network. This project is set to deliver results that are of real interest to “early movers”, enabling them to bring a real market impact in the next few years. In order to prove that this will be achieved, and that indeed the project has laid a bridge between development and deployment, the project is set to deliver a number of commercial contracts for the provision of fully automated drone services, and present solutions to identified gaps towards fully autonomous Urban Air Taxi services.
