U-TRAFMAN is a simulator designed for Urban Air Mobility (UAM) applications. Specifically, it is well-suited for the development of software tools and services related to Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Traffic Management (UTM).
- Provide realistic dynamic simulation of hundreds of UAVs within an urban area: Thanks to the physics engine of the Gazebo simulator and its capabilities, UAV behaviors can be accurately modeled, making the simulations closely resemble real-world scenarios.
- Develop and test autonomous UAV control software and service implementations: The control systems of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) can be modified, re-implemented, or extended.
- Develop and test UTM services: Services and frameworks can be developed and tested to validate their feasibility. Information exchange between aircraft and services can occur through topics, and data can be stored and analyzed post-simulation for debugging. These services can be implemented on any platform compatible with ROS.
You can refer to the installation guide in the documentation for detailed instructions on how to install U-TRAFMAN.
