We are at the cusp of an aviation revolution whereby flying cyber-physical systems will disrupt and transform entire industries. The convergence of new technologies including electric propulsion and autonomy together with new business models is generating the potential for a new aviation market known as Advanced Air Mobility (AAM). AAM is a safe and efficient system for air passenger and cargo transportation across urban and rural areas, inclusive of small package delivery and other urban Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) services, which supports a mix of on-board/ground-piloted and increasingly autonomous operations.

The focus of this project is on the development of a decentralized digital marketplace connecting vehicles, reasoning, and data services across the cloud to edge continuum and enabling real-time and non-real-time decision-making by all users (humans and machines) of the airspace system.
