19.11.2. Autonomous Flights

Try these first

1. 1.

   What is a waypoint?

   Hint

   Think about where the UAV needs to go during its flight.

2. 2.

   Explain what RTK technology does.

   Hint

   Consider what kind of tasks require very precise positioning.

3. 3.

   What does RTK stand for?

   • Real-Time Kinematic
   • Remote Tracking Knowledge
   • Radar Tracking Kinesthetics

   Hint

   Think of a term that relates to time and positioning.

4. 4.

   True or False: Geofencing allows UAVs to operate freely in any zone.

   • True
   • False

   Hint

   Consider whether UAVs can always fly wherever they want.

5. 5.

   You are tasked with surveying a large area using a UAV. Discuss how you would set up waypoints for the missions, considering altitude and coverage.

   Hint

   Consider how you balance altitude with data detail.

6. 6.

   Imagine you have a project in a high-risk area. How would you leverage geofencing and emergency return protocols to ensure operational safety?

   Hint

   Think about the importance of safety in risky environments.
