Aurora Drone Ops
An autonomous drone fleet control and patrol simulation platform featuring real-time telemetry and spatial boundary logic.
Project Overview
Aurora Drone Ops is a high-fidelity surveillance simulation platform designed for managing autonomous drone fleets. Built using Vanilla JavaScript, Mapbox GL JS, and Turf.js, the system allows operators to define custom patrol zones via an interactive drawing interface. The platform autonomously calculates optimal mission paths, tracks real-time telemetry across multiple drone units, and features a dynamic HUD for live status monitoring and automated alert dispatching. With its futuristic glassmorphism UI and robust spatial logic, the platform demonstrates the potential for automated aerial surveillance and logistics management.
