Summary:A computerized system and method for managing a fleet of Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) collaboratively performing a mission. The system receives mission requirements comprising mission goals, area of operation, characteristics of each UAS and calculates data acquisition points in the area of operation according to mission goals, sensor types and constraints. It then calculates a flight plan for each UAS. Once flying in the field, the system verifies for each UAS at predetermined intervals during flight the UAS' aerial location at that time and compares the UAS aerial location to the expected aerial location according to flight plan in that time. If necessary, adjustments are made to the flight plan of one or more UAS. Other considerations for flight adjustments are battery power level, mission goal accomplishments, signal quality and more.
