Skyway Technologies, which is developing navigation services for autonomous aircraft, is to integrate Eve Air Mobility’s urban air traffic management (UATM) software with its planned vertiport operation services. Under a letter of intent signed on October 12, the companies say they will work together to provide urban air mobility solutions to support eVTOL operators as part of Eve’s goal of delivering a UATM platform that could be used by all new eVTOL aircraft, including the four-passenger model it is working to bring to market in 2026.

U.S.-based Skyways is applying its hybrid artificial intelligence technology for tasks such as airspace deconfliction resolution, autonomous aircraft separation, and airspace compliance. It is already providing these services for drone operators from its own air traffic management center and is now making plans to support the large numbers of vertiports that are expected to be used by eVTOL aircraft.
