Location: UCMBEST

Many beneficial civilian applications of the UAS have been proposed, from goods delivery and infrastructure surveillance, to search and rescue, and agricultural monitoring. Currently, there is no established infrastructure to enable and safely manage the widespread use of low-altitude airspace and UAS operations, regardless of the type of UAS. A UAS traffic management (UTM) system for low-altitude airspace may be needed, perhaps leveraging concepts from the system of roads, lanes, stop signs, rules and lights that govern vehicles on the ground today, whether the vehicles are driven by humans or are automated.

NASA envisions concepts for two types of possible UTM systems. The first type would be a Portable UTM system, which would move from between geographical areas and support operations such as precision agriculture and disaster relief. The second type of system would be a Persistent UTM system, which would support low-altitude operations and provide continuous coverage for a geographical area. Either system would require persistent communication, navigation, and surveillance (CNS) coverage to track, ensure, and monitor conformance.

Jeff Homola of NASA's UAS Traffic Management Project (UTM) Project at NASA Ames Research Center will be speaking. He is deeply involved in the development of the UTM concept and the collaborative flight tests conducted across the United States. Join us on November 21 to hear from Mr. Homola on the subject, connect with other professionals interested in the field, and learn about continuing opportunities for R&D, and application.

As usual tacos and beverages will be available for a nominal fee.
