Adaptable Flight Line Planning for Airborne Photogrammetry Using DEM

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2021
Flight line planning is the first step in an aerial photography campaign. Its two key parameters, ground sampling distance (GSD), and overlap should be designed carefully as they will impact subsequent flying workload and even the final mapping accuracy.

Scan Pattern Characterization of Velodyne VLP-16 Lidar Sensor for UAS Laser Scanning

open access: yesSensors, 2020
Many lightweight lidar sensors employed for UAS lidar mapping feature a fan-style laser emitter-detector configuration which results in a non-uniform pattern of laser pulse returns. As the role of UAS lidar mapping grows in both research and industry, it

Flight Trajectories Optimization of Fixed-Wing UAV by Bank-Turn Mechanism

open access: yesDrones, 2022
This paper addresses an optimization of Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) flight trajectories by bank-turn mechanism for a fixed-wing UAV at a constant altitude. The flight trajectories should be optimal and stay in the UAV flight operational area.

Feasibility of contrail avoidance in a commercial flight planning system: an operational analysis

open access: yesEnvironmental Research: Infrastructure and Sustainability
Aircraft condensation trails, also known as contrails, contribute a substantial portion of aviation’s overall climate footprint. Contrail impacts can be reduced through smart flight planning that avoids contrail-forming regions of the atmosphere.
