amvlab
amvlab develops open source air traffic management simulation tools, centered on WebATM, a browser-based interface for the BlueSky ATM simulator. The platform enables interactive aircraft visualization, scenario management, and U-space digital twin simulations without desktop installations. It offers Docker-based deployment options, including an integrated build that bundles BlueSky with in-app server controls.

Product
Problem
Air traffic management simulation tools are typically complex, desktop-bound applications that require specialized hardware and technical expertise, limiting accessibility for researchers, urban air mobility planners, and smaller aviation stakeholders. Simulating U-space operations and autonomous aircraft traffic demands flexible, browser-based interfaces that can integrate with existing simulators and geospatial data without steep setup overhead.
Solution
amvlab provides open source ATM simulation tools built around WebATM, a web-based client for the BlueSky ATM simulator. WebATM offers interactive aircraft visualization, command consoles, and scenario management directly in the browser, eliminating the need for desktop installations. The platform supports both traditional and urban air traffic management, with digital twins for U-space simulations that enable traffic analysis and predictive modeling. Custom development services extend WebATM and BlueSky for specific operational needs, while custom tileservers and web mapping solutions integrate specialized geographic data and simulation environments.
Target Audience
Primary users include air traffic management researchers, U-space and urban air mobility planners, aviation simulation engineers, and organizations needing geospatial mapping and digital twin simulation capabilities for autonomous aircraft operations.
Features
- Browser-based interface with interactive map visualization, including flat MapLibre GL rendering and a 3D globe view
- Single-click aircraft selection, double-click follow mode, and 3D aircraft models (A320, A350, A380, B737, B787, EVTOL, drone)
- Smart command console with tab completion, command palette, and map-based coordinate picker
- Upload, organize, and run BlueSky scenario (.scn) files directly from the web interface
- Multi-node simulation support for managing parallel simulation instances from one interface
- Two Docker deployment options: standalone client (webatm) and integrated build bundling BlueSky with in-app server controls and live logs
- Offline-capable operation with PMTiles basemaps and navdata overlays for air-gapped environments
- TypeScript-based client architecture connecting to BlueSky over native ZMQ protocol with Socket.IO data streaming
