RUGGED MOBILE Systems now offer Drone Ground Controllers or Ground Control Stations (GCS) that allow for precise control of UAVs/ drones or robots, monitoring, and mission planning for a wide range of applications, which result in improved operational efficiency and safety.
A Ground Control Station is a hub that allows for control and monitoring of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and drones. GCSs allow user interfaces for command and control, plus telemetry data can be displayed to assist in remote guidance of UAVs or drones, ensuring safe and efficient use of such devices.
Key Features of Ground Control Stations:
Allow seamless communication between UAV or drone and the ground station, resulting in acurate and reliable operations.
Allows operator to capture video and view live video feeds from UAV or drone cameras.
Allows operator to view live data such as speed, position and altitude throughout flight/operation.
Portable solution lightweight enough to carry out in the field
Ground Control Stations can be used with UAV and drones for many field applications including:
Inspection of structures - including bridges, buildings, vessels, infrastructure
Search & Rescue - especially in inaccessible terrain & poor weather conditions
Agriculture - from aerial surveys to use of Lidar and similar imaging to assess terrain, soil type & condition, monitor crop or forest health
Aerial Surveys and Mapping - to collect data on ground type, topographic mapping, mining exploration, archaeology, wildlife and habitat monitoring plus many more applications.
