Funded Activity Summary

Unlocking Urban Airspace for Drone Transport. This project aims to accurately quantify the mid-air collision risk associated with low-altitude unmanned operations in urban airspace through the creation of new data-driven collision risk modelling techniques. Without such techniques, drone operations remain suppressed so their true potential cannot be realised. The collision risk models address this by providing the key missing knowledge that can underpin/enable vital unmanned traffic management applications, including airspace design and the development of separation standards. This can ultimately enable greater access to urban airspace without compromising air safety such that we unlock the commercial and societal benefits of drone use and help modernise urban air transportation.
