A vertiport is a defined area that can support the landing and take-off of eVTOL [electric vertical take-off and landing] aircrafts during flight operations.

CONT

Vertiports can vary significantly in complexity and size, ranging from simple landing pads with minimal infrastructure to complex hubs equipped with facilities for passenger processing, aircraft maintenance, and charging or refueling services. These facilities may also include multiple landing pads, hangars, and terminals designed to handle a high throughput of passengers and aircraft efficiently.
