    摘要: A system and method for rapidly modifying flight mission plans for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) is described. This includes a programming controller that requests the name of the existing flight mission in the UAV. When the requested name of the existing flight mission in the UAV is found to be the same name as that of the desired flight mission in the programming controller then the UAV is simply enabled by the programming controller to carry out the desired flight mission. When the requested name of the existing flight mission in the UAV is found not to be the same name as the modified flight mission in the programming controller then the programming controller creates and provides instructions to the UAV for rapidly updating the existing flight mission into the desired flight mission. These rapid updating instructions are similar to currently used ways of synchronizing personal computers in point-in-time procedures.

    摘要: Embodiments of the present disclosure disclose an aerial vehicle landing method, a ground control system, and a flight control system. The aerial vehicle landing method includes: selecting, when an aerial vehicle needs to make a diversion, an available alternative landing area according to at least a flight parameter of the aerial vehicle; determining the available alternative landing area as a target waypoint, and planning a new airway according to the target waypoint; and controlling, according to the new airway, the aerial vehicle to fly to the target waypoint. According to the foregoing manners, the embodiments of the present disclosure can resolve problems of unpredictable casualties and property losses that may be caused because the aerial vehicle has an emergency and is landed in a non-predetermined area.
