Cover Story: The existing urban air mobility (UAM) concepts of operation, aircraft certification standards, and guidelines provide many prescriptive ways to tackle the microwind pertinent challenges for the safe development of UAM. However, a notable hindrance to the efficacy of these solutions lies in the scarcity of low-altitude observational wind data. One way to overcome this deficiency is via microscale wind modelling. Thus, the comprehensive literature study presented catalogs several wind flow models through a systematic review of wind simulation techniques employed within atmospheric science and wind engineering domains. The insights from this review can be used by the UAM community to make informed decisions about choosing wind models for specific UAM research and needs. View this paper
