Urban Air Mobility

The BLU-Space (Blueprint U-Space) project is piloting the implementation of a safe and automated traffic management system for UAS (Unmanned Aircraft Systems). For the first time in the EU, this is taking place under real conditions and in urban, controlled airspace. 

EU cities and regions are actively exploring the potential of Urban Air Mobility (UAM) to modernize their transportation systems. The project CITYAM equips cities with tools to improve airspace management in dealing with emerging urban air mobility and scaling drone operations.  

As part of a test phase, unmanned flights are to take place regularly between several hospitals and laboratories in the Hamburg city area, transporting medical goods such as medicines, laboratory and tissue samples.
