System and method for mission planning, flight automation, and capturing of high-resolution images by unmanned aircraft

摘要

A system and method for mission planning, flight automation, and capturing of high-resolution images by unmanned aircraft is provided. The system includes at least one hardware processor including a controller configured to generate and execute a flight plan that automatically detects and avoids obstacles present in a flight path for capturing the high-resolution images, requiring no (or, minimal) user involvement. The system can also predict obstacles in flight paths, and automatically calculate a flight path that avoids predicted obstacles.
