Abstract :
This article discusses about the application of unmanned vehicles networks in several areas related to power systems. The main topics are related to the planning and mission control tools as well as coordination, communication and data sharing between the associated nodes. Throughout the work, some vehicles developed in the Underwater Systems and Technology Laboratory (LSTS) will also be presented, including examples of applications, and some work done in partnership with the Department of Automation and Systems (DAS).
