Abstract
There are several possible applications for the use of unmanned aerial vehicles. Among these, monitoring areas inaccessible to humans has been studied with emphasis. In parallel, mosaic construction techniques for digital reconstruction of these areas are the focus of researchers seeking to innovate and streamline this process. The purpose of this work is to unite the ability to fast traversal of an area covered by a system with multiple UAV and the need to obtain images in the process to compose mosaics to monitor interested regions. For this reason, the development of a tool for generating paths is required. It is from there that we can control the UAV to complete the task of scanning the area while decreasing the associated cost and time spent.
