Project description
Solutions to ensure urban air mobility takes off smoothly
The future of mobility is in the air as delivery drones and air taxis are no longer science fiction. They are on course to becoming part of the urban air mobility (UAM), which envisions the transportation of passengers and cargo at lower altitudes within urban and suburban areas. In this context, the EU-funded AiRMOUR project will study and test solutions to make UAM safe, secure, quiet and environmentally friendly, as well as accessible, faster, cheaper and publicly accepted. Specifically, the project focuses on the UAM in emergency medical services (EMS). Bringing together research, national aviation, regional and local urban authorities, UAM and EMS operators, the project will assist city planners and transport policymakers.
Objective
AiRMOUR focuses on research and validating novel concepts and solutions to make urban air mobility safe, secure, quiet and green but also more accessible, faster, affordable and publicly accepted. In response to the call, AiRMOUR presents an approach that takes on one of the most critical and challenging early real life applications of UAM in Emergency Medical Services (EMS). EMS provides a versatile scenario pool that facilitates thoroughly investigating the urgent challenges at hand applying a result driven quadruple helix approach. AiRMOUR fills in the excellence gaps and drastically advances the understanding of needed near-future actions by urban communities, operators, regulators, academia and businesses. The approach and the outcomes will massively benefit the entire UAM development in EMS, but also widely within e.g. the vision of true airborne mobility genuinely supplementing traditional transport modes. AiRMOUR concept centers on thorough research of safety, regulation, user acceptance, sustainability; leveraging them into practical and real-life tangible UAM tools after TRL6 live validations. A strong consortium of research, national aviation, regional and local urban authorities, UAM operators and EMS can guide cities making sure that the impacts are replicated widely. Main outputs are UAM toolbox with a UAM GIS tool for authorities, a UAM guidebook (for cities, operators and other stakeholders) and a UAM training programme together with Eurocontrol, all tested by cities and replicators. The crucial impact of AiRMOUR will be increased UAM competence of city and regional staff and their partners in public transport, energy, innovation and funding. Participation in AiRMOUR allows hands-on testing of the UAM toolbox as well as take-up of future UAM scenarios. Each European local cluster of aviation and urban actors will be able to set-up their own UAM realisation. European policy making and investments will be reinforced with AiRMOUR findings and knowledge.
