Germany – Airport equipment – Lieferung einer modularen Vertiport-Infrastruktur

Within the framework of the DLR-internal research project VERTIFIED, a modular Vertiport research infrastructure is to be established at the Cochstedt site. The aim is to physically implement two demonstrators, with which future concepts of Innovative Air Mobility can be investigated, tested, validated and demonstrated under realistic conditions. The infrastructure is to support two demonstrator configurations: • Urban Vertiport Demonstrator to map vertiport-related operational and infrastructure concepts in an urban, model-like environment. • Airport Vertiport Demonstrator to examine the integration of vertiport-related processes into an existing airport or apron infrastructure. Both demonstrators serve to investigate take-off and landing procedures, ground processes, passenger and freight processes, safety and monitoring functions, meteorological recording, energy and charging processes, as well as the integration of digital services.
