This paper introduces a ground delay based traffic management approach to reduce the impedance based airspace complexity for a given scenario. The preliminary work presented here extends our prior research on developing an impedance based complexity metric for unmanned aircraft system traffic scenario classification. Impedance based metric was evaluated for 1045 randomly-generated scenarios. Scenarios with overall impedance above a certain threshold were declared as no-go. A ground delay approach was developed to be applied to the rest of the scenarios so as to remediate any scenarios with small areas of high impedance on their impedance maps. A sample application is shown for a scenario with sixty flights. The final paper will include detailed trade-offs between overall accrued system delay and the delay tolerance for each aircraft. A sample application to a potential Urban Air Mobility traffic scenario will also be included in the final paper.
