TOUR 3: U-space - towards integrated drone traffic management

How will drones and new airspace users safely integrate into Europe’s skies? This walking tour explores the technologies and operational concepts enabling U-space and its integration with air traffic management (ATM).

Through demonstrations and validation results, participants will discover how digital services, advanced automation and real-time data exchange are enabling safe coordination between crewed and uncrewed aviation. From traffic management tools to operational integration with existing ATM systems, the tour highlights how SESAR solutions are paving the way for scalable, safe and efficient drone operations across Europe.
