Table 1 Comparison of efficiency for different numbers of UAVs.
From: Multi-UAV forest area inspection path planning based on concave polygon region decomposition
Number of UAVs | Coverage Time (minutes) | Total Coverage Distance (km) | Number of Turns | Area Variance (km2) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
1 UAV | 148 | 345.65 | 54 | —— |
3 UAVs | 95 | 295.77 | 49 | 0.08 |
5 UAVs | 67 | 255.13 | 42 | 0.03 |
7 UAVs | 61 | 244.86 | 44 | 0.12 |
9 UAVs | 49 | 231.24 | 51 | 0.15 |
