UTM | airpalette

airpalette UTM (UAS Traffic Management) is a software package that supports the management and operation of sUAS (small Unmanned Aircraft System) based on the principles of safety, security, and risk management.

In the recent years, as the possible application of UAS to business usage expands due to the development of technology, the demands for UAS have increased. In response to this current situation, NTT Data will provide a software package called the airpalette UTM, utilizing all the knowledge that has been cultivated in the field of aviation for over 40 years.

Various related institutions exist regarding drone operations (such as drone users, business-specific applications, operation management system, external input information, network infrastructure, drone makers, traffic management system, ATM, etc.). Among those institutions, providing high quality drone operation system and airspace management system has been considered the most important matter as of now. airpalette UTM provides a solution to such matter, realizing a better drone management methods.

Structure

airpalette UTM consists of 2 parts; FOS and UTM core.

To safely and efficiently manage multiple flying drones, both drone operators and UTM service providers become very important. Drone operators fly drones according to the flight plans they created. UTM service providers manage and support such drone operators. In order to carry out each other’s duties, each airpalette UTM system, FOS and UTM core will be provided to drone providers and UTM providers separately.

FOS (Flight Operation System)

FOS is a system for drone operators operating single/multiple drones remotely at the same time.

Main functions：

Flight management (e.g., flight planning and validation taking weather, obstacles, etc. into account)
Command flights and monitor statuses using various types of networks

UTM core (UAS Traffic Management core)

UTM core is a system for UTM service providers for managing multiple drones flying.

Main functions：

Airspace management (e.g., no-fly zone management, collision avoidance alert, etc.)
Traffic management (e.g., unmanned-manned aircrafts location monitoring, congestion management, capacity management, information sharing among drone operators and ATM, etc.)
