What is the remote
Vertiport Management System (VMS)?
The Vertiport Management System (VMS) is a system which integrates disparate vertiport systems into a single platform providing real-time, remote boarding, control and monitoring of a vertiport, which is a piece of infrastructure that is used to support eVTOLs (electric vertical takeoff and landing) and is usually located near transport infrastructure.
The VMS is typically used to manage a variety of different operations at a vertiport, including interfacing with the scheduling and routing of flights, the coordination of air traffic, the allocation of parking and charging spots for eVTOL aircraft, and the management of passenger operation such as CCTV, Fire Management, PA/VA, Lighting etc.
The VMS is an important part of the infrastructure that is needed to support the emerging use of eVTOL aircraft in today’s world. It provides a single interface for operators to manage the complex operations of a vertiport, and helps to ensure safe and efficient operation across multiple vertiports managed from a remote location.

Data Analytics
The Vertiport Overview page provides operators with high-level information about each site. The floorplan illustrates the vertiport geographical layout overlayed with asset locations and their real-time health statuses.
Each asset icon can be selected to show more detailed information or to view a live CCTV stream. The alarm banner shows site-specific alarming with the ability to show more information and acknowledge alarms.
From the Vertiport Charging page on the Vertiport Management System, you can see the eVTOL and EV charger status across your estate. Status information can be used to determine eVTOL gate selection and direct eVTOLs or EVs to unoccupied gates or spaces.
Selecting a charger icon displays detailed information including electrical data key energy management data crucial for vertiport operations.
The Map Overview page allows you to see an overview of your vertiports across a geographical area. This view provides users with high-level information about each vertiport using traffic light style-coloured icons.
Bespoke user-defined interface displays are designed ensuring the right people are given the right information, at the right time. Selecting a vertiport enables users to navigate to that vertiport site for more detailed information.
The Landing Zones page on the Vertiport Management System shows the status of your gates/landing zones along with real-time updates on charging status, next departure times and occupancy rates.
Selecting an area will open a pop-up with detailed performance data and live CCTV from the area.
Vertiport Boarding Process
The Boarding Process page on the Vertiport Management System allows the process of boarding passengers to be carried out remotely. The page also shows real-time CCTV footage of the eGates and boarding area.
The CCTV page on the Vertiport Management System, shows all cameras across your vertiports can be integrated and controlled from one interface to give your operators access to LIVE footage, playback and reporting.
Multiple security systems can be organised and categorised by location and can be viewed from a single page.
Vertiport eGates
The eGates page on the Vertiport Management System shows the real-time status of the passenger eGates, along with any faults that have occured. There is also analytics on wait times and throughput throughout the day.
Vertiport Movement Schedule
The Movement Schedule page on the Vertiport Management System shows the upcoming/previous departures along with analytics on gate occupancy, movements per hour and passengers processed per hour.
The Data analytics page on the Vertiport Management System can be run on all the devices connected to the system. Reports can be tailored by job function so that users received the appropriate level of detail associated with their responsibilities.
All of this is configured through individual logins for staff.
How will the Vertiport Management System (VMS) benefit you?
We know every type of infrastructure is unique.
Our modular platform can flex to meet your individual needs to achieve efficient operations.

Integrate sub-systems from multiple vendors negating the need to replace your existing vertiport sub-systems.
Multiple Vertiports
Monitor and control multiple vertiport sites across a large geographical area from a single interface.
Environment
Reduce your carbon footprint by monitoring and controlling your vertiport energy usage.
Scalable
Add/remove systems as your vertiport network evolves and changes in the future.
Data Aggregation
Access and analyse sub-system performance data from one location using interactive reports.
Flexible
Our solutions can be used within all types of vertiports, whether their large, medium or small.
Deployment
Keep control of your CapEx by only paying for the modules that you need (you can always add on more later).
Intelligent Maintenance
Enabling condition based and predictive
maintenance strategies for your vertiport staff.
Security
We use secure industrial applications on modern OS to reduce vulnerabilities and make patching easier.
