Airbus CityAirbus task brief

What it does

Allows booking of a taxi from a take off point to a landing point, and system will find the taxi able to reach the customer soonest. Allows creation of new vehicles, disabling vehicles (for maintenance) so they can't be scheduled, disabling locations to prevent any new take off or landings at that location in case of an incident.
