System and method for landing and storing vertical take-off and landing aircraft

A computing system for landing and storing vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) aircraft can be configured to receive aircraft data, passenger data, or environment data associated with a VTOL aircraft and determine a landing pad location within a landing facility based on the aircraft data, passenger data, and/or environment data. The landing facility can include a lower level and an upper level. The lower level can include a lower landing area and a lower storage area. The upper level can include an upper landing area. At least a portion of the upper level can be arranged over the lower storage area. The landing pad location can include a location within the lower landing area or the upper landing area of the landing facility. The computing system can communicate the landing pad location to an operator or a navigation system of the VTOL aircraft.

Urban Drone Corridor
20220212813 · 2022-07-07 ·

An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) passage with physically real housing and enclosure, provides a reliable and secure aerial path space for the UAV in the populated urban areas. The ability of the modern UAV system to make an exact movement, as well as the high precision achieved by the indoor position system, makes regular UAV travel in a physically real tunnel-like corridor unchallenging. Appropriately lightened, EMI shielded, pressurized, with a wired and wireless communication link, the UAV passage creates a safe, reliable, and regulation-compliant flying environment for autonomous UAV flight missions or UAV deliveries deep in the urban areas surrounded by high rise buildings or clouded by controlled/restricted airspaces.
