The invention discloses a method for generating an autonomous inspection orthoimage of an unmanned aerial vehicle, and relates to the technical field of unmanned aerial vehicle surveying and mapping and autonomous navigation.
Global optimization of an air
route is realized through a path optimization strategy fused by a
genetic algorithm in combination with grid characteristics of an inspection area and image parameter constraints, and candidate waypoints are used as nodes; redundant waypoints are screened through leg smoothness factors,
route complexity is reduced, a
genetic algorithm takes
flight height and
waypoint spacing as constraints, a
fitness function containing
flight distance, turning times and overlapping rate is constructed, a
global optimal path is found through
population iteration, multi-target requirements are optimized and balanced, and it is ensured that the
route meets the
image acquisition precision requirement and also meets the requirement of
image acquisition. The
flight distance can be shortened, the turning frequency is reduced, the cruising ability of the unmanned aerial vehicle is adapted, efficient propelling of the inspection task is guaranteed, meanwhile,
waypoint coordinates output through
simulation directly adapt to a flight
control system, and it is guaranteed that actual flight parameters are consistent with planning parameters.
