SkyGrid and Eve publish white paper on low-altitude traffic management. SkyGrid and Eve Air Mobility have published a joint white paper on automated traffic management for low-altitude operations at the Airspace Asia Pacific 2025 event in Hong Kong. The 17-page document, titled "Enabling Advanced Air Mobility - Automated Traffic Management Services for Low-Altitude Operations", addresses the operational and regulatory challenges of integrating highly automated electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft into urban and regional airspace. The white paper proposes how ANSPs can collaborate with third-party service providers to deliver data services and automation, supporting the scaling of advanced air mobility (AAM) operations worldwide. "SkyGrid is proud to work with Eve in charting a clear path toward automated low-altitude traffic management," said Nate Isbell, head of business development at SkyGrid. "Our research underscores how automation and data-driven services can transform airspace management, reduce complexity for regulators, and create new opportunities for operators." According to the paper, automated traffic management services will enhance predictability, capacity and flexibility in urban skies, ensuring that AAM flights can operate safely alongside conventional aviation. With digital airspace structures and data exchange, ANSPs can support high volumes of low-altitude traffic without adding strain to controllers or infrastructure. "Publishing this paper at Airspace Asia Pacific represents a pivotal moment for the future of aviation," said Luiz Mauad, vice president of customer services at Eve. "A key enabler will be optimising the eVTOLs' ability to navigate the skies, and by collaborating with SkyGrid as well as the wider industry, we are laying the groundwork for a new era of traffic management." Mauad added that Asia-Pacific presents an opportunity to lead the transformation given its pace of urbanisation and demand for new mobility solutions. According to Eve's market outlook, the Asia-Pacific region is expected to represent 41% of the world's electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) fleet by 2045, with more than 12,200 aircraft in service. This growth will be driven by rapid urbanisation, rising middle-class populations and increasing congestion in the world's largest cities. The white paper is available for industry review and discussion as part of the CANSO panel Pathway to Advanced Air Mobility - Launching Regional AAM into the Future. SkyGrid and Eve are committed to working with regulators, ANSPs and operators to advance digital infrastructure and automation. SkyGrid is based in Austin, Texas, and is part of Wisk Aero. Eve Air Mobility is backed by Embraer's 56-year history of aerospace expertise.

Eve Air Mobility, SkyGrid publish white paper on automated ATM for low altitude operations. Eve Air Mobility and SkyGrid announced today the joint publication of a white paper titled "Enabling Advanced Air Mobility - Automated Traffic Management Services for Low-Altitude Operations" unveiled during the CANSO Airspace Asia Pacific conference in Hong Kong. The paper provides a roadmap for airspace integration and automation, setting the stage for the future of digital aviation. "Developed jointly by Eve and SkyGrid, the 17-page white paper addresses the operational and regulatory challenges of integrating highly automated eVTOLs and other new aircraft into urban and regional airspace," said the companies in a press release. "It proposes how Air Navigation Service Providers (ANSPs) can collaborate with third-party service providers to deliver novel data services and automation, supporting the safe and efficient scaling of AAM operations worldwide "Publishing this paper at Airspace Asia Pacific represents a pivotal moment for the future of aviation," said Luiz Mauad, Vice President of Customer Services at Eve. "Our vision is to ensure that Advanced Air Mobility is not only possible, but scalable, safe and sustainable. A key enabler will be optimizing the eVTOLs' ability to navigate the skies, and by collaborating with SkyGrid as well as the wider industry, we are laying the groundwork for a new era of traffic management. This will allow urban air mobility to thrive while supporting the needs of traditional aviation. Asia-Pacific, in particular, presents an extraordinary opportunity to lead this transformation, given its pace of urbanization and demand for new mobility solutions." Said Nate Isbell, Head of Business Development at SkyGrid. "Our research underscores how automation and data-driven services can transform airspace management, reduce complexity for regulators, and create new opportunities for operators. This white paper is not just a vision; it is an invitation for governments, ANSPs and industry leaders to join us in building the systems that will unlock Advanced Air Mobility at scale and deliver lasting value to societies worldwide." According to the paper, automated traffic management services will enhance predictability, capacity and flexibility in urban skies, ensuring that AAM flights can operate safely alongside conventional aviation. With new technologies, digital airspace structures and data exchange, ANSPs can support high volumes of low-altitude traffic without adding strain to controllers or infrastructure. The white paper is available for industry review and discussion as part of the CANSO panel "Pathway to Advanced Air Mobility - Launching Regional AAM into the Future." According to Eve's Market Outlook, the Asia-Pacific region alone is expected to represent 41% of the world's eVTOL fleet by 2045, with more than 12,200 aircraft in service. This growth will be driven by rapid urbanization, rising middle-class populations and increasing congestion in the world's largest cities. Together, Eve and SkyGrid are committed to ensuring that this growth is achieved in a safe, digital, and sustainable way.
