Abstract: A system and process for dynamically determining a route for an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) is provided. In one example, at a computer system including one or more processors and memory, the process includes receiving a route request, the route request including an origin location and destination location for a UAV, receiving geospatial information associated with the origin location and the destination location, the geospatial information comprising at least one of physical obstacles and no-fly zones, determining a route of the UAV from the origin location to the destination location based at least in part on the geo-spatial information, and causing the route to be communicated to the UAV.

Abstract: This disclosure describes a ground station configured to facilitate the delivery of payloads using unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). The ground station includes multiple sensors that allow for autonomous operation of the ground station as part of a larger payload transportation system. The sensors are configured to confirm loading of payloads onto a UAV, checking a status and safety of the drone and clearing an area surrounding the ground station prior to takeoff and/or landing operations of the UAV.
