SkyGrid, a joint venture between Boeing and SparkCognition, is collaborating with NASA Langley Research Center to incorporate essential capabilities, functions and services to support the integration of autonomous aircraft within the air transportation system.
The company said Friday it will help NASA Langley integrate its traffic surveillance software to support the unmanned aircraft system traffic management system and other distributed cooperative airspace management platforms as part of the agency’s advanced air mobility aircraft initiative.
SkyGrid and NASA Langley will also collaborate on optimizing UAS operations, such as cargo delivery and life-saving para-public services, in the national airspace system.
In addition, SkyGrid will provide critical data and insights to inform the development of new standards and procedures for safe and effective UAS operations.
