Abstract

This research evaluates relevant prerequisites for Personal Air Transport System (PATS) introduction into the urban transport modelling environment. Integrating Personal Air Vehicles (PAV) into existing transport systems poses various questions, which have to be thoroughly assessed. Therefore, different possible concepts of operations are being discussed, including not only ownership structure but also aspects like the adaptability of schedules (on-demand vs. scheduled services). Furthermore different demand drivers, such as job, housing, and retail location, user behaviour and mode choice are being presented with a digression on possible impacts on the city structure. In addition to that, potential cities for PAV introduction and the required properties are examined. Finally, different state-of-the-art approaches for transport modelling are constituted in order to lay the foundation for further research.
