The processor is configured to: receive the current position of the unmanned vehicle; generate a vehicle control signal for instructing the unmanned vehicle to perform a manoeuvre which moves the unmanned vehicle from its current position to the at least one waypoint; and transmit the vehicle control signal to the unmanned vehicle through the first communications interface. An unmanned vehicle, a system and method of controlling an unmanned vehicle are also described.
