CORUS five will produce the fifth version of the U-space ConOps. The updates are needed to catch up with recent progress. The fifth edition will align with regulatory and standardisation developments, the strategic direction of research, and address some open questions. The current implementations of U-space are generating performance and interoperability requirements. UAS Traffic Management […]
Safety Assurance though Flight ContingEncy enrichment and GUidAnce for low Risk U-space Deployment Project summary. Funded by The SESAR 3 Knowledge Transfer Network Project website
Improving the planning and management of flight contingencies in the scalable deployment of drone operations We are entering a new era of aviation that will transform how people and goods move through our cities. A new generation of airspace users—drones and urban air mobility vehicles—is rapidly emerging, with forecasts predicting very high traffic densities over major […]
U-ELCOME aims to enable the scalable market deployment of U-space U1 and U2 services through large-scale demonstrations across Europe. The project develops, tests, and validates SESAR U-space solutions at 15 operational sites in Spain, Italy, and France, combining digital and physical infrastructures to reach TRL 8. U-ELCOME focuses on U1 foundation services, such as e-registration, e-identification, and geo-awareness, which enable safe […]
A Multi-Agent negotiation framework for planning conflict-free U-space scenarios The expected growth of drone traffic in both urban and rural areas calls for highly automated and scalable air traffic management solutions. U‑PLAN addresses this challenge by developing smart U‑space services that help balance airspace demand and capacity while maintaining safety and efficiency. The project introduces automated, negotiation‑based mechanisms that detect […]
CORUS‑XUAM is a 24‑month Very Large Demonstration (VLD) project that showcases how U‑space services can enable integrated Urban Air Mobility (UAM) operations in Europe. The project demonstrates how eVTOLs, drones, and manned aircraft can operate safely, securely, sustainably, and efficiently within a fully integrated airspace, without negatively affecting existing ATM operations. Building on the original SESAR CORUS U‑space Concept of Operations (ConOps) delivered […]
