About this technology
Overview
As UAV traffic management development and testing has become more complicated, the need has arisen for tools that can control and visualize multi-vehicle interactions. WebGS is a tool for test design and automated simulation execution (repeatable and adjustable flight planning). It provides a platform for multi-aircraft interaction and visualization, and allows for live flights to interact with simulated vehicles. It is compatible with other flight control software and multiple aircraft simulators. Also, WebGS allows for remote monitoring and multi-user interactions. WebGS provides a platform to handle an increasingly complex and dynamic simulation and operational environments, while simplifying the user experience, and providing an easy to understand visual overview of a complex airspace environment.
