Privately protected areas increase global protected area coverage and connectivity
Nature Ecology & Evolution, 2022 Privately protected areas (PPAs) are increasing in number and extent. Yet, we know little about their contribution to conservation and how this compares to other forms of protected area (PA). We address this gap by assessing the contribution of 17,561 PPAs to the coverage, complementarity and connectivity of existing PA networks in 15 countries across ...

Integrated Design of Cooperative Area Coverage and Target Tracking with Multi-UAV System [PDF]
Journal of Intelligent and Robotic Systems, 2023 This paper systematically studies the cooperative area coverage and target tracking problem of multiple-unmanned aerial vehicles (multi-UAVs). The problem is solved by decomposing into three sub-problems: information fusion, task assignment, and multi ...

Collaborative visual area coverage [PDF]
Robotics and Autonomous Systems, 2017 This article examines the problem of visual area coverage by a network of Mobile Aerial Agents (MAAs). Each MAA is assumed to be equipped with a downwards facing camera with a conical field of view which covers all points within a circle on the ground.

Olfactory coordinated area coverage [PDF]
Autonomous Robots, 2006 This paper proposes an olfaction based methodology to automatically cover an unknown area enabling the decoupled cooperation of a group of floor cleaning mobile robots. This method is based on the utilisation of low cost chemical sensors in cleaning mobile robots, in order to differentiate clean from dirty areas.

A Stacking Ensemble Learning Method to Classify the Patterns of Complex Road Junctions
ISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2022 Recognizing the patterns of road junctions in a road network plays a crucial role in various applications. Owing to the diversity and complexity of morphologies of road junctions, traditional methods that rely heavily on manual settings of features and ...
