In order to obtain an appropriate UAV route to inspect a rectangular ground area using a sensor with a conical field of view, this paper analysis three classic trajectories, namely scan, rectangular spiral and Hilbert paths. Using carefully chosen metrics we conclude that the scan path is the right solution to this static coverage planning problem. |
