Abstract
A computer-implemented method includes receiving a trajectory request from an unmanned aerial vehicle, the request comprising: an initial point; a final point; at least one manoeuvrability parameter of the unmanned aerial vehicle; computing a plurality of optimized 4D trajectories between the initial point and the final point, complying with the at least one manoeuvrability parameter, and avoiding obstacles in an airspace, each 4D trajectory being associated with a performance score; a flight simulator simulating the plurality of 4D trajectories in order of decreasing performance score, until a 4D trajectory is considered to be flyable by the flight simulator; sending the trajectory considered to be flyable by the flight simulator to the unmanned aerial vehicle.
