COMMUNITY & STATE PLANNING

Understand the ecosystem.
Find your place in it.

Advanced Air Mobility is more than an aircraft. It is an ecosystem of aviation, infrastructure, public agencies, industry, and the communities it serves.

Damron Consultants helps cities, towns, counties, and states make sense of that ecosystem, explore how they can engage, and translate their priorities into a strategic plan and roadmap.

Explore a strategic plan for your community
  1. 01

    Build a shared understanding

    Make the AAM ecosystem understandable: the people, technologies, infrastructure, and relationships that shape it.

  2. 02

    Explore how to engage

    Connect community and state priorities with potential roles, relevant partners, and opportunities to participate.

  3. 03

    Develop a strategic plan

    Bring the vision into focus with clear goals and priorities grounded in local needs and context.

  4. 04

    Map the way forward

    Turn strategy into a roadmap of next steps, near-term priorities, and longer-term milestones.

FROM STRATEGY TO READINESS

Your community.
Your AAM playbook.

A tailored planning framework that connects local priorities with infrastructure, policy, and public understanding.

01 / ANALYZE

Understand the place

Evaluate community assets, potential sites, transportation connections, and energy readiness. Use geospatial analysis to understand terrain, obstacles, and sensitive locations.

02 / PLAN & ALIGN

Connect policy and infrastructure

Assess land use and zoning needs, explore vertiport and operational concepts, and support coordination across agencies, utilities, and jurisdictional boundaries.

03 / ENGAGE

Bring people into the process

Help elected officials, planning commissions, staff, and residents understand AAM. Build clear presentations and outreach materials that invite questions and surface community priorities.

A roadmap built for your next decision.

Potential deliverables include a readiness assessment, site and infrastructure screening, policy recommendations, stakeholder engagement materials, and a phased implementation roadmap. Each engagement is scoped to your community’s needs.

OUR PERSPECTIVE

The airspace above.
The world below.
The connections between.

Aviation doesn’t happen in isolation. It exists within a larger landscape of infrastructure, land use, and people.

Our focus brings aviation planning and geospatial thinking into the same conversation—helping frame what comes next with a clearer understanding of place.
