Coverage path planning with unmanned aerial vehicles for 3D terrain reconstruction
作者：
Highlights：
• Focus is on the coverage path planning problem with UAV for 3D terrain reconstruction.
• The aim is to obtain a path that reduces the battery consumption, minimizing the turns.
• Our algorithm deals with both convex and non-convex regions
• The algorithm can perform the coverage when complex regions are considered.
• Can achieve better solutions than a previous result (using less turns).
