Unmanned aerial vehicle operating method and device

Abstract

The embodiments of the present invention provide an unmanned aerial vehicle operating method and device. The method includes the following steps that: the surveying and mapping information of an operation object to be operated is acquired, wherein the surveying and mapping information contains the safe height, geographic location information, and spraying radius of the operation object; the flyingheight of an unmanned aerial vehicle is adjusted to the safe height, and the unmanned aerial vehicle flies to a position corresponding to the geographical location information according to the safe height; and in the position corresponding to the geographical location information, the unmanned aerial vehicle performs spiral spraying operation on the operation object on the basis of the spraying radius. With the unmanned aerial vehicle operating method and device provided by the embodiments of the invention adopted, the unmanned aerial vehicle can autonomously fly to each crop and then performspiral flight, the flight curve of the unmanned aerial vehicle is continuous, so that the unmanned aerial vehicle can perform covering type spraying on each crop and accurately control the quantity of pesticides according to spiral states; and therefore, a precise spraying effect can be achieved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of unmanned aerial vehicles, in particular to a method for operating an unmanned aerial vehicle and a device for operating an unmanned aerial vehicle. Background technique [0002] Unmanned aerial vehicle (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle, UAV for short), is a kind of unmanned aircraft. UAVs are widely used and are often used in plant protection, urban management, geology, meteorology, electric power, emergency rescue and disaster relief, video shooting and other industries. [0003] With the development of UAV plant protection technology, UAV plant protection has the characteristics of small damage to crops and high utilization rate of pesticides. More and more farmers or farmers use drones for plant protection operations, especially for pesticide spraying and fertilizer spraying. [0004] The existing agricultural plant protection UAV operations are generally only for large-scale, small plants and densely planted...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0007] First, because the method of spraying fruit trees with a manual remote control drone requires the participation of operators throughout the process, the labor cost is relatively high;

[0008] Second, fruit trees are easy to block people's sight, which increases the difficulty for operators to control drones, resulting in increased manual operation errors, which can easily cause some fruit trees to miss spraying, and even flight accidents;

[0009] Third, artificial control of pesticide spraying is difficult to control the amount of spraying, and the effect of precise spraying cannot be achieved
