Abstract
Systems and methods for providing surveillance services for an unmanned vehicle are described herein. One embodiment of a method includes receiving surveilled data from a surveillance monitor regarding the unmanned aerial vehicle and at least one other aircraft, receiving trajectory data from at least one trajectory data source, and comparing the surveilled data with the trajectory data to determine whether the unmanned aerial vehicle is on path to collide with a third party aerial vehicle. In some embodiments, in response to determining that the unmanned aerial vehicle is on path to collide with the third party aerial vehicle, the method includes determining an alternate route for the unmanned aerial vehicle; and communicating at least a portion of the alternate route to the unmanned aerial vehicle.
