Abstract
Recent innovations in both technology and regulations mean UAVs are rapidly moving forward and are expected to be introduced into communities for the delivery of goods and packages in the near future. The private sector is advancing UAV technology, and the public sector is preparing for its integration through new regulations and the determination of appropriate landing sites and other infrastructure needed for UAVs. However, prior research into the public opinion of the integration of this technology has been limited in depth and scope. As with any disruptive technology, public opinion is vital to UAVs successful integration. As a negative or positive public opinion of a project can massively influence the outcome of said projects, expanding this understanding will allow planners to know what engagement or education efforts can be made to aid the successful integration of vertiports. The purpose of this study is to gain a better understanding of the public opinion of the integration of UAVs in the Wasatch Front. Presentation Time: Thursday, 2-3 p.m.
