“CloudStation”: A Cloud-based Ground Control Station for Drones
2020
This article demonstrates an open source cloud-based ground control station that allows remote piloting of drones (aerial-, land-, or sea-based vehicle) from anywhere in the world with just a Web browser. A standard client–server architecture is used for pilot–server and drone–server communication and it is designed to be scalable for the control of millions of drones simultaneously. CloudStation, a proof of concept Web app, is built with Django and hosted on a cloud-based service provider with global availability and scalability. A demonstration from two antipode points (separated around the world) shows the cloud-based command and control of a remote rover.
