Abstract: The present invention relates to a system for improving accuracy and safety of UAV navigation, and for generating an optimal protection level and geometry screening, and more particularly to a system that monitors an error and a failure of a GNSS navigation signal, broadcasts error correction information and integrity information to a UAV within a radius of about 20 km to allow the UAV to apply the corresponding information by a ground module, thereby improving the navigation accuracy and safety of the UAV. The ground module receives a GNSS navigation signal, calculates GNSS navigation error information, and generates correction information, and monitors a failure through a simplified failure monitoring algorithm, and the mounted module provides a system and a method for receiving a message that is broadcast by the ground module, and calculating precise and safe navigation information of an UAV by applying the message.

Abstract: The flight control part 201 makes the unmanned aerial vehicle fly along a flight path in a predetermined area. The radio wave acquisition part 202 acquires radio wave information including a radio wave intensity when the radio unit of the unmanned aerial vehicle detects a short-distance radio wave of the user terminal during the flight of the unmanned aerial vehicle. The flight position acquisition part 203 acquires GPS position information of the unmanned aerial vehicle when the radio unit detected the short-distance radio wave, as a flight position of the unmanned aerial vehicle based on a GPS unit of the unmanned aerial vehicle. The terminal position calculation part 204 calculates a presence position of the user terminal in the area based on a radio wave intensity of the acquired radio wave information, and the acquired flight position of the unmanned aerial vehicle. The user attribute analysis part 205 arranges the calculated presence position of the user terminal in the map information corresponding to the area, and analyzes user attribute information of the user terminal based on place attribute information indicating a characteristic of the place where the presence position is arranged.

Abstract: A method for controlling a drone includes receiving a request for information about a spatial location, generating data requests, configuring a flight plan and controlling one or more drones to fly over the spatial location to obtain data types based on the data requests, and extracting and analyzing data to answer the request. The method can include extracting data points from the data types, obtaining labels from a user for one or more of the data points, predicting labels for unlabeled data points from a learning algorithm using the labels obtained from the user, determining the predicted labels are true labels for the unlabeled data points and combining the extracted data, the user labeled data points and the true labeled data points to answer the request for information. The learning algorithm may be active learning using a support vector machine.

Abstract: Various systems and methods for providing and deploying a power harvesting drone are described herein. A power harvesting drone includes a motor assembly; an energy replenishment coupler; a processor communicatively coupled to the energy replenishment coupler; and a memory storing instructions, which when executed by the processor cause the processor to: operate the power harvesting drone to navigate a predetermined path; determine that a power supply used to operate the power harvesting drone is below a threshold of remaining power; identify an opportunistic energy source; and deviate from the predetermined path to replenish at least a portion of the power supply from the opportunistic energy source using the energy replenishment coupler onboard the power harvesting drone.

Abstract: A method, system, and/or computer program product ameliorates mosquito populations. A flying drone is deployed over an area. Sensor readings that identify a presence of water in the area are received, and one or more processors determine a confidence level L that the water in the area is stagnant water. The flying drone is then directed to perform an amelioration action against the mosquito larvae based a value of the determined confidence level L.

Abstract: A drone control system for controlling a drone which includes an onboard-flight-system previously configured to receive navigational-data in a format compliant with a standard navigational data transmission protocol. The system includes a remote-sensor and an interface. The remote sensor is located remotely from the drone and determines the position of the drone relative to the remote-sensor. The interface, coupled with the remote-sensor, produces a pseudo GPS signal indicating the position of the drone and to provide the pseudo GPS signal to an onboard-flight-system of the drone. The format of the pseudo GPS signal is fully compliant with the standard navigational data transmission protocol employed by the onboard-flight-system. The onboard-flight-system is receives inertial tracking data from an onboard inertial-measuring-unit and the pseudo GPS signal, and tracks the position of the drone by merging the inertial tracking data and the pseudo GPS signal and navigates the drone accordingly.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method causes an amelioration of an erratic manner in which a vehicle is being driven. One or more processors receive, from at least one sensor associated with a vehicle, sensor readings indicating that the vehicle is being operated by a driver in an erratic manner. Processor(s) compute a risk R associated with the driver operating the vehicle in the erratic manner, and determine whether the risk R is above a predefined threshold. In response to determining that the risk R is above the predefined threshold, processor(s) deploy an aerial drone to a current location of the vehicle, and transmit instructions to the aerial drone to perform an action that causes an amelioration of the erratic manner in which the vehicle is being driven.
