Description
Visual analytics module for mission control and system monitoring. A hardware-in-the-loop simulation environment can be used as a base for such a GUI. Focus will be on providing heatmaps and similar visualisation, based on information obtained by the drones.
Improvements
Current state-of-the-art in ROS is rViz, with various plugins. Some Gazebo integration plugins exist to setup a hardware-in-the-loop infrastructure with real-life robots, however, there is still work necessary to produce a easily accessible standard setup. Gazebo can show various information overlays, it's interesting to check for the possibilities to add heat-maps, safe-routes, highlighting points of interest, etc. Areas that are not visited yet by drones, should be darkened.
