Abstract :
The aim of this paper is to implement a decision support system for routing Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) in the context of maritime surveillance. The sea environment is highly uncertain and dynamic which requires the routing calculation to be highly responsive to changes and to operate in real-time. The approach adopted for this problem combines the multicriteria decision methods AHP, PROMETHEE and mathematical programming to establish a real-time adaptive routing system.
