Unmanned Aerial Vehicle-Based Semantic Understanding For Structure Inspection

An unmanned aerial vehicle, comprising:

• one or more cameras;
• one or more memories;
• and
• one or more processors configured to execute instructions stored in the one or more memories to:
• capture one or more images of a structure using the one or more cameras;
• determine components of the structure based on the images and a taxonomy associated with the structure;
• and
• output a visual representation of the components to a user device to enable selections of ones of the components for inspection.

A system, comprising:

• an unmanned aerial vehicle;
• and
• a user device in communication with the unmanned aerial vehicle,
• wherein the unmanned aerial vehicle is configured to:
• capture images of a structure during an exploration inspection of the structure;
• determine components of the structure based on the images and a taxonomy associated with the structure;
• and
• output, to the user device, a visual representation of the components to enable selections of ones of the components for further inspection.
