Abstract

La présente invention concerne un système de guidage d'itinéraire, utilisant des informations météorologiques, d'un véhicule aérien sans pilote, un procédé associé, et un support d'enregistrement enregistré avec un programme informatique. C'est-à-dire, la présente invention : détermine s'il faut ou non faire voler un véhicule aérien sans pilote en utilisant des informations météorologiques obtenues d'après les observations en temps réel d'une pluralité d'observatoires météorologiques localisés de manière dense sur la base d'une station de base présente entre un lieu de départ du véhicule aérien sans pilote et une destination de celui-ci ; fournit un itinéraire optimal correspondant à un itinéraire de temps le plus court valide ou à un itinéraire de consommation de carburant optimal, parmi une pluralité d'itinéraires disponibles pour le vol, s'il est déterminé que le véhicule aérien sans pilote peut voler ; et recherche un itinéraire de vol ou recherche un itinéraire de retour si, pendant le vol, une valeur observée en temps réel sur un itinéraire de vol programmé dépasse une valeur de référence prédéterminée pour un temps prédéterminé, un vent fort, de la pluie ou de la foudre est nouvellement observé sur l'itinéraire de vol programmé, ou s'il est déterminé par l'intermédiaire d'un capteur, monté sur le véhicule aérien sans pilote, ou autre, qu'il est difficile de poursuivre le vol. Par conséquent, la présente invention peut déterminer avec précision s'il faut ou non faire voler un véhicule aérien sans pilote et peut sélectionner un itinéraire pour un vol économique et sûr.
