UTM Simulator

Soul Software is developing an UTM Simulator, a platform that will help to validate different UAS traffic for VLL scenarios.

  • Cloud Ready
The Cloud infrastructure will enable the collaboration among people working on the same scenario, potentially reducing the preparation of a study, enabling the scalability, optimizing the computational resources used.

Modules

Scenario Creator

  • To create or import map features and terrain info.

UTM System Connector

  • To create or import ATM constraint zones.

UTM Simulation Planner

  • Automatic stochastic UAS flight plan generator.

UTM Simulation Engine

  • Simulates the dynamic of UAS.

UAS Traffic Analyser

  • Post processing (number of conflicts, hot spots,…).
  • Produce statistics based on the traffic.

Traffic Visualization

  • 2D Traffic Visualization.
  • 3D Traffic Visualization.

Scenario Creator

The user can create different scenarios, with custom boundaries ranging from single cities to a region.

He can add obstacles, flight rules and mission constraints (parcel delivery, railway survey)

OpenDEM data are used for the elevation info.

Stochastic Flight Planner

Flight Planner

Stochastic UAS flight plans are generated for each configuration. Flight plans can be obstacle free, avoiding buildings and no-fly zones.

3D Visualization

3D visualization will show the vertical UAS flight plan profiles and the surrounding obstacles.
