This dataset contains images collected (and processed) for the experiments of Beyond Coverage Path Planning: Can UAV Swarms Perfect Scattered Regions Inspections?" journal article, a work that defines a new path planning problem for UAVs - the Fast Inspection of Scattered Regions (FISR) - and introduces a novel method that deals with this problem - the multi-UAV Disjoint Areas Inspection (mUDAI) method. For the validation of the introduced methodology, two sets of real-world experiments were executed, one small-scale in Galatsi, Athens, were two mUDAI missions were depolyed, with two different optimization objectives for the data collection procedure (Mazimized Coverage Objective - MCO, and Balanced Coverage Objective - BCO), and one large scale in ZEP-Kissos, Thessaloniki, where a Coverage Path Planning (CPP) mission, and 2 mUDAI missions, one with a single and one with two UAVs, using both the MCO criterion for the data collection, were deployed. Regarding the CPP mission, both the collected images, and the processed results (to generate 2D, 3D, elevation, and plant health maps) are included. In this page you can find a guide for the on-line platform hosting demo instances of the algorithms used for the deployment of all experiments.
