What is UTM – and why it matters
UTM explained
More details

What does UTM do?
UTM (Unmanned Traffic Management) systems coordinate drone flights in low-level airspace (U-space) and ensure safe integration with manned aviation. They manage airspace access, authorize flights, and track operations in real time. HHLA Sky’s UTM Control Center acts as a digital control tower, enabling automated management of drone missions even in complex urban environments like Hamburg.
Why is UTM necessary?
With increasing drone traffic in cities, ports, and near airports, uncoordinated flights pose safety risks. UTM ensures safe and fair use of airspace by providing structured procedures and integration with manned traffic. We always test under real-world conditions to prove the UTM’s role in reducing conflicts and increasing operational efficiency.
How does UTM work?
A UTM system connects to drone control centers and external data sources, such as air traffic control, regulatory systems, and geo-zones. It automates flight approvals, verifies compliance, and provides 3D visualizations of active and planned flights. HHLA Sky’s solution also integrates terrain and infrastructure data, offering a comprehensive airspace picture in real time.
Who uses UTM?
- Operators manage BVLOS and urban flights with automated approvals and live tracking.
- Authorities oversee compliance and geo-zones with 3D situational tools.
- USSPs deploy scalable, standards-based platforms.
- Enterprises integrate secure UTM into complex drone operations.
What makes HHLA Sky’s UTM special?
The system is modular, scalable, and developed in Germany. It enables real-time airspace coordination, integrates with various control centers, and supports high automation – even in complex urban settings.
