ATM-X UAM Airspace Subproject Perspective
Airspace is ready when the Vehicle is ready
Wx-related Challenges to the UAM System
• Highly impacted by localized conditions
• Difficulty of real-time data distribution
• Need for common operating picture
• Understanding operational impacts
• Ability to simulate UAM operations
Weather impacts entire UAM System Architecture- Vehicle Performance- Weather-related services- Weather-impacted services
