ATM and UTM are becoming more and more linked as new aircraft enter airspace controlled by air traffic management organisations globally. As a result, we will increase our coverage of these topics in this UTM section of our site to make them easier to identify if this is your area of interest. Below you will find news and features on uncrewed traffic management (UTM) solutions, uncrewed aerial vehicles (UAV), Urban Air Mobility (UAM), Advanced Air Mobility (AAM), drones, eVTOL and more as the industry evolves.
Pop-Up Unmanned Traffic Management Successfully Demonstrated

ATCA Annual Day 5 – WTF 2020?
ATCA got it right this year. This industry tends to discuss the same topics repeatedly until it feels safe branching out. 2020 was a year of branching out. The traditional ATM topics ranked low on the agenda. New topics such as drones, supersonic travel, commercial space and innovative technologies. Technologies in support of Cybersecurity, AI and machine learning to highlight key discussions. Well done ATCA.
ATCA Annual Day Three – Virtual Reality
Day three included sessions that covered many different topics across the spectrum, the main theater along with educational and Tech Talks sessions. UAM, UTM, Cybersecurity, collaboration and COVID-19.
ATCA Annual Day Two – A trend emerges
The second day of the ATCA Annual continued on a course set on day one. We need to be considering topics beyond traditional air traffic management. The world is changing, aviation is changing, technology is evolving and our industry needs to keep pace.
Belgrade Airport enhances security
Belgrade Nikola Tesla Airport purchased and put into operation an R&S ARDRONIS counter drone system from Rohde & Schwarz. Early warnings about drones are key to countering threats, and R&S ARDRONIS can detect drones even before they take off.
