Abstract: Embodiments describe a computer-implemented method for generating a flight plan for a remote deployable transient sensory system using a coverage path planning system. The method includes generating, using the remote deployable transient sensory system, a first sensory dataset comprising sensory data associated with a plurality of building envelope features associated with a built environment, building a second sensory dataset comprising a 3-dimensional (3-D) point cloud model using the first sensory dataset and identifying, in the 3-D point cloud, via the processor, a plurality of virtual energy efficiency features associated with respective energy efficiency feature locations of the building. The system generates the flight plan based on a flight metric optimization scheme.
