Non-Traditional Airspace Operations

Office: 
ARC
Topic Description: 
NASA is exploring airspace operations incorporating unmanned vehicles and novel operations occurring in all airspaces (controlled and uncontrolled), with a goal to safely and efficiently integrate with existing operations and mission types. NASA’s work in this area has already demonstrated the potential benefits and capabilities of a service-based architecture (such as developed for the Unmanned Aircraft Systems Traffic Management [UTM] R&D evaluations), and has led to new procedures, equipage and operating requirements, and policy recommendations, to enable widespread, harmonized, equitable execution of diverse unmanned missions.
