Before Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) can be widely deployed over complex terrain and urban regions, a methodology is needed to deconflict and track UAS flights. This paper presents a formal geofence definition and a methodology to use geofences to temporally and spatially organize the airspace in support of a UAS Traffic Management (UTM) system. Algorithms are presented to temporally and spatially deconflict requested geofences from existing approved geofences in the UTM system. A case study shows how deconflicted geofences impact UAS flight.
