Power-over-tether aircraft is an effective tool for persistent spatiotemporal monitoring of environmental phenomena. This paper presents the design and evaluation of flight trajectories for the tethered aircraft unmanned system (TAUS) sensing a dynamic temperature field. TAUS is a novel power-over-tether-based unmanned aerial system (UAS) configured for long-term, high throughput atmospheric monit...
