Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for a sensor activation and correlation system. One of the methods includes obtaining information describing a flight plan for implementation. A trigger associated with activating a camera included in an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) is determined to be satisfied. Information indicating that the camera is to capture an image is provided to the camera. A first timestamp associated with the image is obtained and stored. Information indicating that the image was captured is received and associated with the obtained first timestamp. Information indicating that the camera captured the image is provided to a user device in communication with the UAV.

Abstract: An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) logs first UAV information at a first frequency. The UAV triggers a camera associated with the UAV to capture an image. In response to triggering the camera to capture the image, the UAV logs second UAV information at a second frequency that is higher than the first frequency. A device that is separate from the UAV identifies a location of the UAV corresponding to the image based on a capture timestamp of the image received from the camera, the first UAV information, and the second UAV information. The device generates a geo-rectified imagery based on the image and the location of the UAV.
