ANRA Technologies and NAVOS Air have collaborated to incorporate flight path procedures into ANRA’s Vertiport Management Service for Vertical Take-off and Landing (VTOL) aircraft operations for Urban Air Mobility (UAM).

This joint undertaking combines first-of-its-kind services and technologies to accelerate safe and compliant vertiport implementation in the United States.

According to ANRA, the partnership will benefit from the company’s years of experience developing its UAM traffic management capability with the FAA, NASA, and internationally. It will allow UAM operators to plan and execute their flight operations from pad to pad efficiently, supported by a comprehensive suite of services.

“As an extension of our Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) instrument procedure integration work, we were able to leverage our helicopter, low-level flight and regulatory experience to obtain the first FAA conditional approval for a vertiport,” said Ty Le Roy, Chief Designer at NAVOS Air. “Building upon this experience in our new partnership with ANRA, we will design FAA-compliant flight path infrastructure that will be incorporated into ANRA’s software for supporting VTOL aircraft arrivals and departures from vertiports.”

“While many vertiport providers are busy building the physical infrastructure and conceptualizing the passenger experience, ANRA has developed the digital layer,” added Amit Ganjoo, Founder and CEO of ANRA Technologies. “Partnering with NAVOS allows us to bring a more complete solution to the market faster, especially when combined with our Urban Air Mobility traffic management technology.”
