Development of an Integrated Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) Validation Center
项目名称: Development of an Integrated Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) Validation Center
摘要: This pooled-fund study proposes to develop the standards, protocols, and testing requirements that a given unmanned aerial systems (UAS) must meet and demonstrate for a particular application. As an example, considerations regarding UAS deployment for bridge inspection may include (but are not limited to) the following: (1) Safety in constrained locations where line of site is limited, (2) Imaging system performance in poorly lit environments, (3) Control of the UAS while flying between large steel girders, (4) Adequate resolution of the imaging system for detecting the damage of interest. The objectives of the study are two-fold: Development of the specific criteria a given UAS must meet for each particular application and Determining how to validate that a given UAS meets the required criteria. The current industry is unregulated with regard to establishing the required level of performance for UAS in civil engineering applications. The results of this study will be the development of the performance measures and validation criteria that agencies can use when making decisions about deployment of UAS in the context of civil engineering.
