NASA Strategic Framework for On-Demand Air Mobility
The Aeronautics Research Mission Directorate (ARMD), NASA Headquarters,
requested an analysis of the strategic framework and public value proposition
for On-Demand Mobility (ODM) vision and concepts, to support decisions on
research and technology development investments by the agency. This report
responds to that request, and provides a high-level view from a team of subject
matter experts experienced in all aspects of aviation innovation: aircraft,
airspace, airports, operations, policy, regulation, technology, strategy,
partnerships, and finance.
The strategic framework team reached the following distilled conclusions and

On-Demand Mobility Report Out:
September 29 & 30, Hartford CT
On-Demand Mobility Report Out:
The report out of the NASA-FAA On-Demand Mobility and
Emerging Aviation Technologies Roadmap Formulation was integrated with the SAE,
AHS, AIAA, and NASA Sponsored Transformative Vertical Flight Workshop held
September 29 & 30, 2016 in Hartford CT(
vtol.org/events/transformative-vertical-flight-workshop
). The NASA ODM presentations are available below.
With the initial technology roadmaps complete, we are
transitioning from the 3 technology workgroups (Electric Propulsion; Simplified
Vehicle and Airspace Operations; and Manufacturing, Integrated Structures, and
Community Impact) to two mission-oriented workgroups. These two new
workgroups center on: 1) Thin-Haul Commuters and 2) Urban VTOL Air-Taxis.
If you are interested in learning more or joining either group, please contact

On-Demand Mobility and Follow Up Workshop
Open
to all aviation and transportation professionals, operators, suppliers,
researchers, and government agencies.
