First calls for Digital European Sky projects!
The SESAR 3 Joint Undertaking (SESAR is Single European Skies ATM (Air Traffic Management) Research) has published two open calls addressing exploratory research, industrial projects, and activities to fast track innovative solutions within the framework of its Digital European Sky research and innovation programme. The calls cover a wide range of topics aimed at making air traffic management in Europe smarter and more sustainable. A total of 194.75 million Euros is earmarked for the research from the EU’s Horizon Europe research and innovation programme.
The exploratory research call (HORIZON-SESAR-2022-DES-ER-01) aims at fostering new and innovative ideas to transform air traffic management in Europe, as well as encouraging coordinated exchange of knowledge and stimulating the future ATM skilled workforce. It is composed of three work areas, namely “fundamental science and outreach”, “application-oriented research” and “knowledge transfer network”.
The industrial research call (HORIZON-SESAR-2022-DES-IR-01) is composed of six work areas, addressing ATM Master planning and performance management, emissions reduction, automation, domain airspace management, artificial intelligence, among others. Novel activities are also sought to fast-track innovation and uptake of solutions addressing U-space (integration of drones, urban air mobility, multimodality and the aviation green deal).
The deadline for proposal submission for both calls (all 34 Topics) is October 13th, 2022.
