Abstract

Disclosed are systems and methods for storing path data for all vehicles of a service area in a path data store and representing each path with a unique hash value, generated based on the path data. Rather than controllers and/or aerial vehicles exchanging the full path data for each path, a common hash function may be used to generate unique hash values for each path and the unique hash values may be exchanged and used to lookup the full path data.
