UTM and Ecosystem Integration
Safety management for distributed traffic services, operational data, airspace interfaces, infrastructure, and contingency response.
Manage the dependencies created by cooperative traffic management.
FAA describes UTM as a distributed ecosystem for managing low-altitude UAS operations, with industry services cooperating under FAA constraints. A UTM-focused SMS should account for each data, service, and operational interface. EFVS brings UTM ecosystem context to collaborative discussions with AerospaceSMS.
