Method for setting flight altitude of unmanned aircraft and unmanned aircraft system

摘要

A method for setting a flight altitude and such an unmanned aerial vehicle system that efficiently set the flight altitude in a flight plan based on undulation and/or inclination of a ground surface or a ground object. The method includes: an undulation research step of making the unmanned aerial vehicle fly and measuring a height of a ground surface or a ground object; and an altitude setting step of, during preparation of a flight plan that is setting data including a specification of a path on which the unmanned aerial vehicle is made to fly autonomously, automatically setting the flight altitude on the path in the flight plan based on the height of the ground surface or the ground object measured in the undulation research step. An unmanned aerial vehicle system capable of performing the method.
