Control system and method for cooperative surveying and mapping of unmanned ship and unmanned aerial vehicle

Abstract

The invention discloses a control system and a control method for the cooperative surveying and mapping of an unmanned ship and an unmanned aerial vehicle. The control system comprises an unmanned ship cooperative surveying and mapping device in the unmanned ship and an unmanned aerial vehicle cooperative surveying and mapping device in the unmanned aerial vehicle which performs mutual communication cooperative surveying and mapping. The automatic surveying and mapping of shoal sea areas with many islands and reefs are realized; the surveying and mapping task of a sea area which cannot be reached by a large surveying and mapping ship can be completed with high efficiency and low cost, meanwhile, the submarine topography can be surveyed and mapped, the surveying and mapping of an upper portion of an island reef can be achieved, and the surveying and mapping task of a target sea area is achieved more completely. The invention belongs to the technical field of unmanned ship and unmanned aerial vehicle cooperative application.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of collaborative application of unmanned boats and unmanned aerial vehicles, and relates to the technical field of control technology for unmanned boats and unmanned aerial vehicles to coordinate the surveying and mapping of islands and reefs. Surveying and mapping control system and its control method. Background technique [0002] In terms of automatic surveying and mapping of target sea areas with shoal islands and reefs, the existing unmanned boats can survey and map the seabed with a certain depth in the target sea area. Because some islands and reefs protrude from the water, or form some islands and reefs, it is impossible to realize Complete mapping of reef waters. Unmanned aerial vehicles can realize the surveying and mapping of the terrain above the islands and reefs, but the surveying and mapping of the seabed topographic map cannot be obtained. At the same time, when using a single drone for surv...

Problems solved by technology

[0002] In terms of automatic surveying and mapping of target sea areas with shoal islands and reefs, the existing unmanned boats can survey and map the seabed with a certain depth in the target sea area. Because some islands and reefs protrude from the water, or form some islands and reefs, it is impossible to realize Complete surveying and mapping of island and reef waters

Unmanned aerial vehicles can realize the surveying and mapping of the terrain above the islands and reefs, but the surveying and mapping of the seabed topographic map cannot be obtained. At the same time, when using a single drone for surveying and mapping, because the survey ship is far away from the target sea area, the endurance of the drone is poor and the operation time is short. Difficult to obtain good surveying and mapping results
