The realization of the Urban Air Mobility (UAM) vision, entailing the deployment of high-density autonomous flights over urban areas, necessitates methodologies transcending contemporary airborne sensing techniques. An instrumental innovation in this realm is the advent of distributed sensing. In this paradigm, environmental sensors function as active agents, engaging in the triad of sensing, processing, and communication either amongst themselves, with ground stations, or both. This concerted effort creates a dynamic and responsive "smart space," facilitating real-time autonomous control. NASA Ames Research Center is actively engaged in a series of comprehensive indoor and outdoor flight tests to garner requisite data and insights essential for the actualization of this ambitious vision. This paper delineates the holistic configuration of the flight payload and the distributed ground nodes pivotal to the NASA flight test campaign. Furthermore, it expounds upon the intricacies of the sensor node communication framework. The narrative extends to provide a detailed overview of the strategic placement of distributed sensors and a comprehensive account of the varied indoor and outdoor flight tests orchestrated in pursuit of UAM objectives.
