DIgital comPEtitive next Generation Aviation technologies for SUStainable business models, products and services

Di-Pegasus的总体目标是实现水上飞机、垂直起降和无人机的完全自主、具有成本效益和环境友好的作业。这一目标将通过开发几项同时针对空中和地面的使能技术来实现。此外，Di-Pegasus提议开发一个数字平台，根据现有的数字技术和关键业绩指标(包括成本效益、创造就业、减排、投资成本)，以便向政策制定者和将提供这些服务的相关利益攸关方提出建议。该平台还应支持对法规遵从性的评估，以确定技术需要遵循的安全保证过程，以及需要解决的现有法规中的漏洞。

Di-PEGASUS overall objective is to enable fully autonomous cost-effective and environmentally friendly operations for seaplanes, VTOL and drones. This objective will be achieved by developing several enabling technologies targeting both the air and the ground side. In addition, Di-PEGASUS proposes to develop a digital platform to evaluate the viability of specific business models at particular locations, according to the digital technologies available, and the Key Performance Indicators (incl. cost-effectiveness, job creation, emissions savings, investment costs), in order to make recommendations to policy makers and relevant stakeholders that will host these services. This platform should also support the assessment of regulatory compliance to identify the safety assurance process that the technologies will need to follow, as well as the gaps in existing regulations that will need to be addressed.
