Skyports Dubai AAM Infrastructure
Design and Certification

Unified Aviation supported Skyports Infrastructure in developing their Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) infrastructure design and certification project in Dubai for the RTA.

The project aimed to address several challenges, including developing a comprehensive project implementation plan for a government-level AAM infrastructure, engaging with stakeholders to manage project expectations, and ensuring regulatory compliance for infrastructure development. The primary focus was to integrate new airspace concepts into existing operations and manage the complexities associated with regulatory requirements.

Our Project Objectives

Primary Goal: The primary goal of the project was to develop a clear and actionable project implementation plan for a government-level UAM infrastructure in Dubai. This included creating preliminary airspace concepts that needed to be integrated with existing airspace and conventional operations.

Secondary Goal: The secondary goals involved engaging with stakeholders to understand and manage project expectations effectively. This entailed extensive stakeholder meetings to gather input and feedback, ensuring the project aligned with various needs and requirements. Additionally, the project aimed to address regulatory compliance challenges by working closely with relevant authorities to provide a pathway for certification, including design acceptance and managing new innovative requirements.

The Approach

Unified Aviation employed a strategic approach for the Skyports Infrastructure project in Dubai. This included developing preliminary airspace concepts, engaging with stakeholders for feedback, and addressing overall requirements such as obstacle limitation surfaces and airspace changes. The project also focused on assessing the impact on international airport operations at a nearby vertiport.

Our Solutions

Unified Aviation's solutions involved creating a Strategic Roadmap, implementing advanced planning, and integrating automated systems. Ensuring regulatory compliance was a key focus, alongside providing training programs and ongoing support.
