Urban Air Mobility for Sustainable and Smart Portuguese Cities: A Living Lab in Lisbon

Abstract

This article focuses on urban mobility three-dimensional (3D), aiming to provide conditions and practical tools to improve lives and reverse climate change through the innovation of urban mobility by implementing a living lab in Lisbon, Portugal. As urban mobility is about people, like climate change issue is a human issue, urban air mobility (UAM)'s technology humanization is the key to obtaining success in the long run. As a result of the ongoing engagement of Portuguese citizens alongside interaction with stakeholders, guidelines are provided to bring UAM to the city of Lisbon. These guidelines could backbone future advanced discussions and narrow the gap between the science community, public authorities, professional actors (i.e., the industry), and consumers (i.e., people).
