Intermap announces new contract powering urban air mobility

Intermap Technologies announced a new contract with Skyroads AG and cloudeo AG to power an Automated Airspace Management and Vehicle Guidance System. Under the agreement, Intermap’s NEXTView will be integrated into Skyroads’ system to ensure safety, efficiency and obstacle avoidance as vehicles travel above urban environments.

Skyroads is developing a groundbreaking Automated Airspace Management and Vehicle Guidance System to build digital roads in the sky. In collaboration with Intermap and its partner, cloudeo, Skyroads is using Intermap’s aviation-specific terrain data, NEXTView, to build an obstacle management system within its intelligent airspace management system.

This system will enable advanced air mobility and interoperability between manned and unmanned traffic in complex urban airspaces. The automated system scales urban air mobility and enables vehicle developers and operators to achieve ambitious commercial goals.

Intermap’s NEXTView is the world’s first and only high-resolution global terrain dataset designed for the aviation industry. In partnership with Lufthansa Systems, Intermap created NEXTView to provide the aviation industry with the highest quality, continually updated terrain data.
