Descripción del proyecto
Probar el rumbo de los drones
Para los drones, el cielo es el límite, pero Europa está elaborando un marco para que las operaciones de estas aeronaves no tripuladas sean seguras con el fin de reducir los riesgos y aumentar la seguridad. La Agencia Europea de Seguridad Aérea (AESA) ha publicado unas directrices para ayudar a los operadores aéreos y a las autoridades nacionales a gestionar los incidentes con drones cerca de los aeropuertos. En este contexto, el equipo del proyecto financiado con fondos europeos FlightAI analizará la tecnología de inteligencia artificial (IA, o AI por sus siglas en inglés) generada durante el proyecto GOAL-Robots, en el marco de FET Open. Esto permitirá encontrar soluciones en espacios de búsqueda muy poco lineales. El objetivo es formular planes de vuelo basados en una interfaz interactiva. Mediante la comprobación de la aceptabilidad y usabilidad de la tecnología propuesta, en FlightAI se probará el sistema integrado a través de la amplia red de partes interesadas del consorcio.
Objetivo
Drones in Europe are a rapidly developing sector with enterprises increasingly using drones for their business and the EU Legislator giving EASA rulemaking responsibility for civil drones of any mass. The common rules have been developed and will be enforced from January 2021. The performance of flight operations requires the compilation of a safety risk assessment document, in particular, the SORA (Specific Operations Risk Assessment) established for drone operations and endorsed by EASA. Compiling this assessment is expertise intensive and time-consuming. Currently, EUSC supports this operation with a web service called SAMWISE that, however, still requires the manual gathering of a large amount of information and the satisfaction of several constraints. The project aims to integrate into the web-solution built by EUSC the Artificial Intelligence (AI) technology generated by the FET-OPEN GOAL-Robots project, allowing the search of solutions in highly-nonlinear search spaces. The new technology from GOAL-Robots will support the semi-autonomous search of a solution to formulate flight plans based on an interactive interface, that meets the user’s requirements (flight start/arrival points, drone available, pilot licences, etc.), the SORA requirements, and the GIS characteristics of the involved overflown territory/airspace. The project will accomplish a systematic validation of the integrated system by testing the acceptability and usability of the proposed technology by selected stakeholders through the wide stakeholder network of the consortium. Moreover, business case refinement and focused dissemination activities will pave the way to the commercialisation of the produced service within the European drone market.
