Future Airspace Operations: UTM-Inspired Air Traffic Management

Abstract

We need to prepare airspace system to accommodate diversity, density and complexity of future operations. Current system will reach its peak due to use of old technology and human-in-the-loop nature to accommodate new entrants. Talk will focus on how an ATM system can be made ready to meet the future needs. Author will discuss a number of lessons based on Unmanned Aircraft System Traffic Management (UTM) could be leveraged to prepare for future.
