Özet: Urban Air Mobility (UAM); It refers to a proposed set of tools and operational concepts for providing on-demand or scheduled air transport services within a city area. It has emerged as an integrated concept from Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) and rotary wing aircraft systems, which are used effectively in many areas with the developing technology and whose usage area is expanding day by day. In this concept, air platforms with VTOL (Vertical Take-off and Landing), eVTOL (Electric Vertical Takeoff and Landing) and STOL (Short Take-off and Landing) features in areas such as transportation in the near future, manned (semi-autonomous) and unmanned (semi-autonomous) in retail cargo transportation, healthcare services. autonomous) seems possible. With UAM Systems; First of all, small aircraft with low maintenance and operating costs will be used in short distances. As a result, travel routes will be shortened and the time spent traveling will be reduced. The number of Vertiports, which are access points to UAM systems, will increase linearly with comfortable travel and decrease in urban transportation costs. As a result of reduced maintenance/operation costs and easy access to comfortable air transportation; Benefits such as reducing land traffic in cities, reducing carbon emission rates, which have a direct negative impact on urban air pollution, and saving time, which is a limited resource, are expected. Regarding the use of UAM systems in cities, this new system has been studied in comparison with known/traditional air taxi services. Data were collected by conducting interviews and surveys with professional aviators who are experts in UAM and traditional air taxi services, have worked and/or are working in the aviation industry. In the light of the collected data, SWOT analyzes were made. A comparative analysis of eVTOL aircraft concepts was made with the obtained data. Expert opinions are included in the findings section. In the conclusion and evaluation part, the general concept of UAM was created and studies to be carried out within the scope of MIS (Management Information Systems) were suggested. When the information obtained from the analysis results is evaluated, it has been concluded that UAM systems are more applicable systems than traditional air taxi services, although they contain threats and weaknesses. With the spread of eVTOL aircraft over city areas, in events such as fire, earthquake, forest fire; It is concluded that it can be used in activities such as the surveillance, coordination and direction of the teams, and the surveillance of the city.
