Abstract

Optimal path planning for monitoring of highways and ground static targets by unmanned aerial vehicle is considered in the paper. The optimal conditions of switching from the flight under the highway on the flight to neighboring ground target are defined. The obtained conditions allow planning UAV flight at joint monitoring of both long-distance highways and group of the ground targets.
