Dynamic Aircraft Routing

Abstract: a request for transport services that identifies a rider, an origin, and a destination is received from a client device. eligibility of the request to be serviced by a vertical take-off and landing (vtol) aircraft is determined based on the origin and the destination. a transportation system determines a first and a second hub for a leg of the transport request serviced by the vtol aircraft and calculates a set of candidate routes from the first hub to the second hub. a provisioned route is selected from among the set of candidate routes based on network and environmental parameters and objectives including pre-determined acceptable noise levels, weather, and the presence and planned routes of other vtol aircrafts along each of the candidate routes.
