The emergence of electric vertical takeoff and landing (eVTOL) aircraft is frequently discussed through the lens of propulsion efficiency, battery density, or noise reduction, yet these technical metrics obscure a far more valuable and contentious commodity: information.
The emergence of Urban Traffic Management (UTM) systems represents far more than a technical infrastructure for coordinating drone and eVTOL operations it constitutes a vast, continuously expanding repository of spatial, behavioral, and operational intelligence.
