On July, partners in the ENSURE project, ENAIRE and CRIDA, in collaboration with INECO, conducted a real-time simulation to test the dynamic airspace reconfiguration (DAR) solution.

The summer marked a period of intense activity and significant progress for the ENSURE project. In June Project partners validated a new service for the ATM-U-space interface: the emergency management and contingency plan

The tests in July built on this work, focusing on a second solution to dynamically adjust U-space airspace within controlled airspace to meet the varying demands of both manned and unmanned traffic. The platform, developed by ENAIRE, was enhanced with cutting-edge functionalities to facilitate the dynamic segregation of manned and unmanned traffic. ENAIRE’s controllers rigorously tested the solution in a simulation environment focused at Malaga airport.

These exercises are part of a series of iterative simulations aimed at quickly advancing the solution to higher maturity levels.


About ENSURE

Funded within the framework of Horizon Europe, the ENSURE fast track project aims to refine and complete the definition of a common interface and services for U-space and ATM. The project is developing a standardised data model, architecture and an operational methodology. It will also develop a dynamic airspace configuration service to help air traffic management stakeholders in charge of airspace reconfigurations to maintain traffic segregation and to avoid proximity between manned and unmanned aircraft within the designated U-space airspace.
