Abstract: One variation of a method includes: capturing a first image depicting a target surface; accessing a toolpath including a set of keypoints for execution by the spray system; navigating the set of spray nozzles across a first segment of the target surface; applying paint onto the first segment of the target surface; capturing a second image depicting paint applied onto the first segment of the target surface; navigating the set of spray nozzles across a second segment of the target surface; applying paint onto the second segment of the target surface; capturing a third image depicting paint applied onto the second segment of the target surface; and aggregating the first image, the second image, and the third image into a paint map representing application of paint onto the first segment and the second segment of the target surface.

Abstract: A method includes: navigating a spray nozzle across and applying a coating to a region of a structure via the spray nozzle; illuminating the coating applied to the region; detecting an intensity of light emitted by the coating at the region; calculating a coating thickness of the coating applied to the region of the structure based on the intensity of light; in response to the coating thickness exceeding a threshold thickness, confirming application of the coating on the region of the structure; in response to the coating thickness falling below the threshold thickness, flagging the region of the structure for coating repair.
