KAIROS will improve the quality of meteorological information provided to the aviation community through the use of artificial intelligence. By producing accurate digital weather forecasts at longer lead times, aviation stakeholders will be bettered position to mitigate the impacts of weather on their operations. KAIROS will mature the TRL of results from previous SESAR Exploratory Research projects, with the goal of reaching TRL 7 through the completion of operational demonstrations. The project will integrate live weather information from AI forecasts with existing decision support tools and platforms to assess the operational benefits to several end-users. The KAIROS solution will enable a paradigm shift in the management of demand capacity balancing at all levels of the European airspace system including network level, local FMP, and UAM. KAIROS AI-based weather forecasts are intended to be an enabling technology that will unlock operational efficiencies and the automation of planning activities within the airspace system. By providing accurate weather forecasts earlier in the air traffic flow management process, aviation stakeholders including ANSPs, airports, and airlines will be able to formulate strategies to minimize the disruption to their operations.

INCLAVI will address the skills mismatches that exist in the aviation sector related to the freedom of movement of persons with disabilities (PwDs) and accessibility requirements in line with the EC Strategy for the Rights of Persons with Disabilities 2021-2030. INCLAVI accomplishes this through rigorous cooperation between key global industry and labour market actors combined with a world-class HEI and VET consortium. INCLAVI will also further improve the collaboration between HEIs and VET. The specific objectives of INCLAVI are: 1 - Understanding the actual passenger journeys of PwDs across all stages of a passenger journey and a wide spectrum of disabilities on a more detailed level than the currently distinguished ones in the aviation industry and education. 2 - Identifying the best practices of inclusive aviation across the aviation sector, and benchmarking the best 30 training and education programmes and curricula that address the PwD skills in air transport. 3 – Developing the curriculum contents and structure to be deployed through conventional and digitalized means (Training app), both in higher and vocational education and among aviation professionals, with INCLAVI Training App aiming to reach 10.200 unique downloads within the INCLAVI consortium. 4 – Enabling the curriculum with long term validity through due recognition and certification and real-world application with 8.000 recognised and certified learning encounters and further dissemination at 150 major EU airports and 50 major EU airlines. 5 – Publishing policy recommendations for EU and global stakeholders involved with the aviation industry 6. –Annually improving the passenger journey of 52,000 passengers with disabilities during the project lifetime at iGa with potential for growth with further aviation industry actors. INCLAVI has gathered 13 carefully selected partners from 10 countries representing key aviation stakeholders, HEI, VET, and aviation stakeholders.
