Real-time dispatching of air taxis in metropolitan cities using a hybrid simulation goal programming algorithm

作者：

Highlights：

• Air taxis (urban air mobility (UAM) services) are planned to be launched in coming years.

• Proposed a centralized framework to allocate and dispatch air taxis dynamically.

• Developed hybrid simulation goal programming model that can make real-time decisions.

• Tested the proposed approach using millions of estimated air taxi demand data.
