KEY ATTRIBUTES

DESCRIPTION

Flying Forward 2020 (FF2020) was a collaborative three-year research and innovation project funded by the European Union under the Horizon 2020 program with grant agreement number 101006828. The project was developing an entire state-of-the-art Urban Air Mobility (UAM) infrastructure by incorporating this new form of mobility within the geospatial digital infrastructure of cities. It included a governance model and framework, a regulatory framework, a geospatial digital infrastructure, a Digital Toolbox, an Identity of Things (IDoT) scheme, and interoperability frameworks. The solutions developed during the project were tested in five living labs across Europe: Eindhoven, Milan, Zaragoza, Tartu and Oulu – enabling an open dialogue with stakeholders, end-users and citizens to improve processes and results. Ultimately, FF2020’s goal was to have a positive and lasting impact on the quality of life of European citizens and to create sustainable partnerships and cities.
