Pattern Generation

Search, Line-based, and Volume Coverage Patterns

The Pattern Service is designed to generate optimized flight paths based on user-defined requirements. It offers API endpoints for parallel and rectangular pattern generation within defined boundaries, line-based pattern generation for applications like fence line inspection, and volume coverage pattern generation for 3D volumes.

The service processes user inputs such as coordinates, camera coverage specifications and image requirements to produce a list of waypoints to capture the required data. The Pattern Service aims to streamline mission planning by providing strategic flight patterns that ensure full visual coverage while maintaining line of sight and adhering to mission-specific requirements.

The patterns can optionally adjust waypoints using the built-in elevation data from the Elevation Service to ensure consistent data capture, which can be essential for applications such as photogrammetry.

  • Search pattern generation: Returns strategic flight patterns for 3D inspection, considering camera parameters and visibility analysis, ensuring full visual coverage and maintaining line-of-sight.
  • Line-based Pattern Generation: Returns flight patterns along a specified line, such as a fence line, considering camera coverage and inspection angle specifications.
  • Volume Coverage Pattern Generation: Returns flight patterns that cover all sides and the top of a specified volume, defined as a polygon with a bottom and height.
