Abstract

A method of performing an adaptive aerial survey includes capturing images of a target area, by at least one camera system disposed on an aerial vehicle, as the aerial vehicle travels along a flight map that includes a plurality of flight lines. The method also includes determining coverage of the target area based on the images captured by the at least one camera system, and adjusting at least one of the flight map and an orientation of the at least one camera system based on the coverage of the target area determined based on the images captured by the at least one camera system. The method can be performed by a control system including circuitry to perform the above steps.
