Provided are a method, system and device for global path planning for an unmanned vehicle in an off-road environment. The method includes: obtaining satellite elevation data and a satellite remote sensing image of a current off-road environment; constructing a digital elevation model (DEM); determining slope and land surface relief of each grid in the current off-road environment; performing gray processing on the satellite remote sensing image to obtain grayscale values of the grids; determining traversal costs of the grids corresponding to different ground types; constructing a global grid map based on the slope and the land surface relief of each grid, as well as the traversal costs corresponding to the different ground types; determining a rugged terrain potential field and path costs; and searching for paths using a Bresenham's line algorithm and Theta* algorithm based on the rugged terrain potential field and the path costs, to generate a global path.
