“…Therefore, it should cover all the stages of product or service life cycle as well as be as broaden as required by integration concept. In case of UAM considered as integrated part of multimodal passenger-centred, sustainable transport, it means the need of thorough addressing of the following areas (Dziugiel et al , 2022) (Bagamanova, 2022). policy and efficient and accurate planning; digitalisation and communication; availability of new types of vehicles; and information exchange in multimodal transport, passenger needs and expectations. …”

Purpose Process of building and then implementation of integrated multimodal, passenger-centred and predominantly sustainable transport system will require a specific effort to be input in preparation, especially if it covers new entrants like passenger Urban Air Mobility. This paper aims to address the first step which is the identification of barriers to be overcome to turn the concept into reality. Design/methodology/approach Comparison of the current state-of-the-art in transportation, Information and Communication Technologies as well as other city planning domains to the forecasted ecosystem, described in the form of scenarios where base for definition of necessary actions, challenges as well as potential barriers and obstacles were identified and thoroughly specified. Findings Barriers grouped in five categories: policy, digitalisation, transportation technologies, integration technologies and passengers’ needs allow for formulation of the relevant roadmaps defining optimal development path towards fully integrated multimodal, passenger-centred and sustainable transport system. Research limitations/implications Conclusions can be a starting point in studies towards development of roadmap for implementation of truly integrated municipal transport system both sharing the resources as well as high-level objectives. Practical implications Conclusions can be exploited in various areas starting from preparation of strategies in cities aspirating to be smart, through definition of technology development priorities by relevant agencies ending with industry actors looking for better trimming their business. Originality/value The identified barriers as derived from detailed investigation enable deep insight into the total transport system vision in which Urban Air Mobility integrated within urban mobility ecosystem is considered as game-changing factor having large potential to contribute to both making cities smart and sustainable.

“…In the certified category, the requirements are comparable to those for manned aviation. Requirements for operations within the certified category are: drones certified according to Dziugieł et al (2022); when flying over people with a UAS with a wingspan of more than 3 m; when flying over crowds of people or transporting dangerous goods with high risk in case of an accident or when it involves the transport of people; and if the SORA submitted indicates the need for certification of the UAS operator and the obtaining of the relevant pilot’s license. …”

“…Operations with drones should be regulated in an appropriate manner and proportionate to the risk of the use case. Considered the broad range of use cases and types of drones, the regulatory authorities have established the drones’ operation categories and their associated regulatory regimes as: “OPEN, SPECIFC and CERTIFIED” (Dziugieł et al , 2022) [European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA), 2021].…”

Purpose Theadvanced air mobility (AAM) is defined by National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) as safe, accessible, automated and affordable air transportation system for passengers and cargo, capable of serving previously hard-to-reach urban and rural sites. The purpose of this paper is to focus on explaining potential solutions, under study by the authors, which could support beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS) operations for goods delivery in a safe way. Design/methodology/approach According to recent NASA-commissioned market studies, by 2030, there will be as many as 500 million flights a year for package delivery services and 750 million flights a year for passengers’ transportation (AAM). A significant number of these aircrafts will be unmanned aerial vehicles, meaning that they are self-flying or autonomous, of which the smallest ones are quadcopters: they are relatively inexpensive and are capable to perform various tasks, such as aerial observation, crop monitoring and treatment, search and rescue, power line monitoring and goods delivery. On the other hand, there are still many difficulties in introducing them into medium- and low-risk BVLOS routine operations for goods delivery: unfortunately, there are no regulations and technologies yet that enable these operations. Findings This conceptual paper outlines the studies about possible solutions, identified by authors, which could support BVLOS operations in a medium- and low-risk environment; in particular, the following aspects have been analysed: regulations, integrating control systems for drones, sensors (on board obstacle detection and avoidance), emergency management (emergency on ground system to identify safe landing areas), concepts of droneway (or flight corridors) and drones recovery hub. Originality/value The purpose of this paper is to provide a conceptual description of the possible solutions, under study by the authors, which could contribute enabling the BVLOS operations in a medium- and low-risk environment. The paper aims describing the state of the art, terms of regulations, classifications and limitations and describing possible conceptual solutions that could guarantee safety in introducing unmanned aircraft system operations inside urban areas.

“…The reference papers that described the project evolution are in particular the works from [1] to [6] indicated in the references, whereas the full collection of the project reported outcomes is publicly available through the deliverables indicated in the references from [7] to [12]. It is worth noticing, finally, that the X-TEAM D2D project worked in close cooperation with siblings running projects and, in particular with reference to the UAM related aspects, cooperated and provided relevant outcomes as well as received relevant information, with efficient cross-fertilization, with the ASSURED UAM (Acceptance, Safety and Sustainability Recommendations for Efficient Deployment of UAM) project, as addressed in the reference papers from [13] to [18]. In this paper, in section 2 an outline is provided of the X-TEAM D2D project objectives and methodology and furthermore, in section 3, the scenario and use cases definition outcomes are summarized.…”

The project X-TEAM D2D (Extended ATM for Door-to-Door Travel) has been funded by SESAR JU in 2020 and completed its activities in 2022, pursuing and accomplishing the definition, development and initial assessment of a Concept of Operations (ConOps) for the seamless integration of ATM and air transport into an overall intermodal network, including other available transportation means (surface, water), to support the door-to-door connectivity, in up to 4 hours, between any location in Europe. The project addressed the ATM and air transport, including Urban Air Mobility (UAM), integration in the overall transport network serving urban and extended urban (up to regional level) mobility, specifically identifying and considering the transportation and passengers service scenarios expected for the near, medium and long-term future, i.e. for the project baseline (2025), intermediate (2035) and final (2050) time horizons. In this paper, the main outcomes from the project activities are summarized, with particular emphasis on the studies about the definition of future scenarios and use cases for the integration of the vertical transport with the surface transport towards integrated intermodal transport system and about identification of the barriers towards this goal. In addition, an outline is provided on the specific ConOps for the integration of ATM in intermodal transport infrastructure (i.e. the part of the overall ConOps devoted to integration of different transportation means) and on the specific ConOps for the integration of ATM in intermodal service to passengers (i.e. the specific component of the ConOps devoted to design of a unique service to passengers). Finally, the main outcomes are summarized from the validation of the proposed ConOps through dedicated simulations.
