A method for controlling a flight movement of an aerial vehicle, for dropping a cargo by the aerial vehicle, comprising:
- recording of first image data by means of a first camera device, which is provided on an aerial vehicle, and is configured to record an area of ground, wherein the first image data is indicative of a first sequence of first camera images;
- recording of second image data by means of a second camera device, which is provided on the aerial vehicle, and is configured to record an area of ground, wherein the second image data register a second sequence of second camera images;
- processing the first and the second image data by means of an evaluation device, comprising:
- performing a first image analysis based on artificial intelligence, for the first image data, wherein at least a first drop zone is hereby determined in the recorded area of ground, for dropping a cargo of the aerial vehicle;
- performing a second image analysis, which is conducted free of use of artificial intelligence, for the second image data, wherein at least a second drop zone is hereby determined in the recorded area of ground, for dropping a cargo of the aerial vehicle;
- determining position coordinates for a clear drop zone, which is comprised by the first and the second drop zones, if a comparison reveals that the first and the second drop zones overlap in the area of ground, at least in the clear drop zone;
- receiving position coordinates for a target drop site by a control device of the aerial vehicle;
- determining release characteristics, if a comparison of the position coordinates for the clear drop zone and the position coordinates for the target drop site reveals a match;
- and
- transmitting the release characteristics, which are indicative of the availability of the target drop site for the dropping of the cargo to the control device of the aerial vehicle;
- and
- controlling a flight movement of the aerial vehicle by the control device, for dropping the cargo on the target drop site.
