The low-altitude economy offers new alternatives for urban freight, passenger transport, and emergency services. Represented by drone logistics, this emerging mode of transportation facilitates the transformation of urban mobility from two-dimensional congestion to three-dimensional restructuring through low-carbon, efficient, and convenient solutions. However, as the low-altitude economy develops, the demand for traffic safety and emergency response evolves correspondingly with this dimensional shift in urban transportation. On one hand, the rapid expansion of low-altitude transport and emergency services currently lacks supporting infrastructure and legal frameworks, necessitating urgent progress in establishing a comprehensive low-altitude traffic safety and emergency response system. On the other hand, the limited availability of aerial emergency resources conflicts with the high-cost attribute of intelligent low-altitude emergency facilities, while research on relative technologies for emergency monitoring, identification, and warning remains scarce. Consequently, how to efficiently manage, coordinate, and allocate low-altitude traffic resources within the complex urban airspace environment has become a critical research gap demanding attention.

The proposed session on “Autonomous Transportation Systems” stands out for its highly interdisciplinary and forward-looking approach. It brings together perspectives from control engineering, artificial intelligence, maritime navigation, and policy-making to provide a holistic view of autonomous waterborne transport. This special session offers a comprehensive panorama from system architecture and cooperative control strategies to human factors and regulatory frameworks ensuring a well-rounded understanding of both technical and operational challenges. This session uniquely tackles the specific difficulties of autonomy on water, such as coordinating multiple vessels (or fleet) in inland waterways and ensuring compliance with maritime rules like COLREGs or MASS.
It will encourage critical thinking and innovative problem-solving by highlighting the tension between cutting-edge technology and real-world constraints. Emphasizing emerging trends (e.g., cloud-edge AI collaboration, federated learning, and advanced simulation of complex waterway scenarios), the session is distinctly future-oriented. Additionally, it serves as a dedicated platform for networking among researchers, industry practitioners, and regulators, sparking collaborations and knowledge exchange that can accelerate progress in this nascent field.
