An Unmanned Lighter-Than-Air Platform for Large Scale Land Monitoring

An Unmanned Lighter-Than-Air Platform for Large Scale Land Monitoring

The concept and preliminary design of an unmanned lighter-than-air (LTA) platform instrumented with different remote sensing technologies is presented. The aim is to assess the feasibility of using a remotely controlled airship for the land monitoring of medium sized (up to 10<sup>7</sup>...
