The rapid growth of innovative air mobility and the challenges that come with their integration into the airspace are at the forefront of today’s aviation ecosystem. Murzilli Consulting’s Airspace services provide consultation support on airspace use, airspace management, traffic management, market research areas and airspace modernisation and implementation.

We provide support services for:

Airspace Studies, Feasibility and Use Case Definition

We provide comprehensive analysis and strategic insights to optimise airspace usage, assess compatibility for new operations, and support regulatory compliance for projects aiming to be integrated into existing and future airspace environments.

Market Research and Market Trend Analysis

We analyse current and emerging trends in aviation, unmanned aircraft systems (UAS), and urban air mobility (UAM) sectors to evaluate airspace and traffic management and provide actionable insights that inform strategic decisions. We also prepare airspace compatibility studies to analyse and look for solutions to make operations compatible in the affected airspace.

Preparation of Studies and Reports

We evaluate technological possibilities and limitations by exploring current and future technologies, assessing airspace safety and risk management frameworks and providing accurate, data-driven insights and guidance on optimising airspace management and utilisation.

Definition of Airspace Use Cases (ConOps)

We define specific use cases using Concept of Operations (ConOps) to evaluate regulatory frameworks, operational constraints, and technological capabilities to identify viable airspace applications, particularly in UAS, commercial aviation and emerging technology sectors.

Preparation of Airspace Service and Traffic Management Service Business Cases

We tailor an organisation’s specific use case with an in-depth analysis of the economic, regulatory and operational aspects of implementing airspace management systems that focus on identifying potential market opportunities, cost structures and revenue models.

Airspace Strategic Plan

We support adapting airspace structures and implementing airspace changes to accommodate evolving needs, including increased traffic, integration of new entrants like drones and urban air mobility (UAM), and enhanced efficiency and sustainability goals.

Analysis of Existing ATM Data and Optimisation Strategies

We review existing Air Traffic Management (ATM) systems, data trends and traffic patterns to provide a data-driven foundation for enhanced air traffic management solutions.

Utilisation of Airspace and Traffic Management Data

We leverage real-time and documented airspace data for airspace optimisation and traffic flow management improvement.

Air Risk Management for Airspace

We provide in-depth assessments and strategy developments to assist an organisation in managing the complexities of airspace safety and security.

Risk Assessment

We evaluate airspace conditions, traffic density, and operational parameters to identify potential risks for existing airspaces with and without adding UA movements to support organisations in understanding the safety implications and developing robust mitigation strategies.

Strategical and Technical Risk Mitigation Strategy Development, Air Risk Management Solutions and Air Traffic Management Strategies

We support organisations in designing and implementing risk mitigation frameworks to address airspace safety challenges by assessing strategic and technical risk aspects and recommending solutions to support a seamless integration of both crewed and uncrewed air traffic.

Risk Assessments in Existing Airspaces and Adjacent Airspaces

We assess the impact of airspace usage on adjacent areas, ensuring compliance with safety standards while minimising collision risks through detailed analyses.

Coordination and Management of Flight Approvals and Management of Flights

We liaise with aviation authorities and manage the complete approval process, ensuring compliance with airspace regulations and safety protocols. We provide end-to-end flight management services, including airspace permission access or authorisation processes, with the competent authorities to enable safe and efficient operations within complex airspace environments.

Airspace Modernisation and Implementation

We support client liaisons between various networks and associations to provide the essential set-up and implementation of airspace environments such as UTM / U-Space, and the introduction of new entrants such as UAS and HAO/HAPS within an existing airspace. We offer support to modernise an organisation’s airspace structures, use, management and coordination. This includes coordinating between civil and state operations.

Feasibility Study and Commercial Analysis for the Implementation of UTM/U-Space Airspaces

We evaluate the technical, operational, and regulatory requirements for establishing UTM/U-Space airspaces, ensuring compliance with aviation standards and best practices by assessing market potential, infrastructure costs, and commercial viability, and delivering actionable insights and strategic recommendations to help organisations make informed decisions. We also support the certification processes for ATM and UTM services, such as for UTM providers and ANSP certifications.

Future Flight Procedure and Airspace Design.

We focus on the design and implementation of advanced flight procedures that improve efficiency, reduce environmental impact, and enhance navigational accuracy.

Development of Airspace Modernisation Strategies and Implementation of U-Space Airspaces

We support the design and implementation of modernisation plans to optimise airspace usage and integrate UTM/U-Space solutions for UAS and other new entrants, such as HAO/HAPS, by focusing on enhancing operational efficiency, safety, and regulatory compliance while addressing technological challenges and opportunities.

Planning of UAS Movements in Existing and New Airspaces

We assist organisations in optimising UAS operations by developing tailored movement plans that comply with current airspace regulations and anticipate future airspace needs.

Airspace Regulation Frameworks

We support with the development and optimisation of regulatory structures necessary for a safe, efficient, and adaptable airspace environment.

Implementation of Separation Procedures for the Coordination between Civil and Military or State Air Operations

We work with aviation authorities and stakeholders to design, implement, and manage airspace management strategies that meet regulatory requirements and operational needs, minimising risks and ensuring smooth airspace use/sharing for all parties involved.

Aviation Technology Implementation

We evaluate and assist in implementing both traditional and innovative technologies, providing a test environment to ensure a smooth transition into an existing data system. We assess the grade of automation and autonomy required and consider SWIM services (System-Wide Information Management) if necessary to ensure efficient and safe technology implementation.

Evaluation of Traditional and Innovative Airspace Traffic Management Solutions

We assess current technologies and explore cutting-edge alternatives to optimise airspace operations.

Implementation Planning, Execution and Oversight for Innovative Air Traffic Management Solutions

We develop detailed implementation plans, manage the execution process, and oversee each phase to ensure smooth integration with existing systems.

IT Infrastructure and Service Planning and Implementation for Air Traffic Data Management

We support the design, implementation, and optimisation of IT systems for cohesive integration and air traffic data management.
