Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) can gather the necessary information in a fast and efficient way. This paper presents an approach for path planning in 3D environments offering a solution to explore disaster areas including, e.g., partially or completely destroyed buildings. Using multiple UAVs decreases the time needed to receive a complete overview if the problem of coordination and task allocation is solved. We present an approach for the use of multiple UAVs. The UAVs work in a distributed manner without any central coordination instance and cover the exploration of terrains as well as goal-oriented path planning. When using multiple UAVs redundant exploration is avoided through the use of inter-UAV-communication. The approach is based on potential fields and uses the simplicity of the gradient method to calculate paths for fast exploration of the terrain.\r\n"}],"author":[{"full_name":"Rasche, Christoph","last_name":"Rasche","first_name":"Christoph"},{"full_name":"Stern, Claudius","last_name":"Stern","first_name":"Claudius"},{"last_name":"Kleinjohann","id":"15588","full_name":"Kleinjohann, Lisa","first_name":"Lisa"},{"last_name":"Kleinjohann","full_name":"Kleinjohann, Bernd","first_name":"Bernd"}],"year":"2011","place":"Wellington, New Zealand,","status":"public","type":"conference","date_updated":"2022-01-06T06:57:25Z","publication":"The 5th International Conference on Automation, Robotics and Applications (ICARA 2011)","language":[{"iso":"eng"}]}
