Abstract
Methods and systems are described herein for generating travel trajectories for uncrewed vehicles. In particular, a navigation system may receive (e.g., from an operator) a travel velocity for moving a fleet of uncrewed vehicles. The navigation system may then identify whether any aerial uncrewed vehicles have a minimum speed that is higher than the travel velocity. Based on the identifying one or more aerial uncrewed vehicles with minimum speed that is higher than the travel velocity, the navigation system may generate a travel trajectory for each aerial uncrewed vehicle. The travel trajectory may take into account vehicle parameters such as minimum turn radius.
