2025 Agenda

The Asia Pacific region is experiencing rapid growth in low-altitude operations, including small UAS, advanced air mobility (AAM), and urban air mobility (UAM). These operations promise transformative benefits in logistics, emergency response, and passenger mobility, but also introduce unprecedented challenges for airspace design, vertiport placement, traffic deconfliction, and integration with existing ATM systems.

AirSpace Innovation (ASI) brings extensive experience in modeling and simulation (M&S) for low-altitude airspace integration, with staff that have developed airspace design proposals for multiple U.S. locations that support corridor design, vertiport siting, demand-capacity balancing, and strategic deconfliction. Additionally, ASI’s independent expertise from our engagements in the US and abroad provides actionable insights that APAC stakeholders can immediately leverage to accelerate safe and efficient low-altitude ecosystem development.

This 25-minute session will cover:

Emerging APAC Needs: Why M&S-driven approaches are critical to enable scalable UAS and UAM operations in high-density urban environments.

Lessons from Past Programs: How corridor and airspace deconfliction studies in complex U.S. metropolitan areas (e.g., New York, Chicago) can be adapted to APAC megacities.

Modeling and Simulation Capabilities:

4D airspace visualization and traffic flow assessment
Corridor and vertiport optimization
Integration of regulatory and safety constraints
Demand-capacity balancing and congestion analysis
Practical Path to Implementation: How APAC authorities and operators can use M&S for testbeds, phased deployments, and policy validation.
Opportunities for Collaboration: Enabling municipalities, ANSPs, and industry to jointly validate concepts before large-scale deployment—reducing cost, mitigating risk, and building public trust.

Target Audience:

ANSPs and regulators developing UAS/UAM policies in the Asia Pacific
City and regional planners exploring vertiport and corridor networks
Industry stakeholders (UAS and AAM operators, OEMs, infrastructure developers)
Research and policy organizations advancing AAM/UAS integration
Key Takeaway:
Through advanced modeling and simulation, APAC stakeholders can reduce cost and time in airspace design, improve safety and efficiency, and accelerate low-altitude operations from concept to reality. ASI stands ready as a partner to help design, validate, and implement the next generation of low-altitude ecosystems across the region.
