Abstract:
The presentation focuses on the technology of navigation of off-road vehicles of the Army of the Czech Republic. It discusses the classical paper maps of terrain passability and the transition to digital mobility models, allowing the calculation of the common influence of individual terrain objects on the movement of a particular off-road vehicle. Among the terrain features calculated are longitudinal and transverse slopes of terrain relief, soils, vegetation, watercourses, and weather effects. The calculation of the optimal route for a particular vehicle can be implemented in both raster and vector format in the form of a cost map or a navigation trajectory.
