Information collection and component/software upgrades for unmanned aerial vehicles

A device, comprising:

• one or more processors to:
• receive real time information associated with aviation in a geographical region and non-real time information associated with aviation in the geographical region,
• at least one of the real time information or the non-real time information including regulatory information,
• the regulatory information including information regarding at least one of:
• no fly zones,
• restricted airspace,
• prohibited airspace, or
• controlled airspace;
• assign a first weight to the real time information to create first weighted information;
• assign a second weight to the non-real time information to create second weighted information;
• receive, from a user device, a request for a flight path for an unmanned aerial vehicle to travel from a first geographical location to a second geographical location in the geographical region;
• determine a suggested software upgrade for the unmanned aerial vehicle based on capability information associated with the unmanned aerial vehicle and receiving the request for the flight path;
• calculate the flight path from the first geographical location to the second geographical location based on the first weighted information, the capability information, and the second weighted information,
• at least one of the first weighted information or the second weighted information including the regulatory information;
• generate flight path instructions for the flight path;
• provide the flight path instructions and information identifying the suggested software upgrade to the unmanned aerial vehicle for use by the unmanned aerial vehicle to travel from the first geographical location to the second geographical location via the flight path;
• receive, based on providing the flight path instructions and the information identifying the suggested software upgrade, feedback from the unmanned aerial vehicle;
• and
• generate, based on the feedback, modified flight path instructions.

A computer-readable medium for storing instructions, the instructions comprising:

• one or more instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a device, cause the one or more processors to:
• receive real time information associated with aviation in a geographical region and non-real time information associated with aviation in the geographical region,
• at least one of the real time information or the non-real time information including regulatory information,
• the regulatory information including information regarding at least one of:
• no fly zones,
• restricted airspace,
• prohibited airspace, or
• controlled airspace;
• assign a first weight to the real time information to create first weighted information;
• assign a second weight to the non-real time information to create second weighted information;
• receive, from another device, a request for a flight path for an unmanned aerial vehicle to travel from a first geographical location to a second geographical location in the geographical region;
• determine a suggested software upgrade for the unmanned aerial vehicle based on capability information associated with the unmanned aerial vehicle and receiving the request for the flight path;
• calculate the flight path from the first geographical location to the second geographical location based on the first weighted information, the second weighted information, and the capability information,
• at least one of the first weighted information or the second weighted information including the regulatory information;
• generate flight path instructions for the flight path;
• provide the flight path instructions and information identifying the suggested software upgrade to the unmanned aerial vehicle for use by the unmanned aerial vehicle to travel from the first geographical location to the second geographical location via the flight path;
• receive, based on providing the flight path instructions and the information identifying the suggested software upgrade, feedback from the unmanned aerial vehicle;
• and
• generate, based on the feedback, modified flight path instructions.
