Abstract

Provided is a flight simulation system for an unmanned aerial vehicle capable of performing pilot training of the unmanned aerial vehicle in an environment closer to a real environment. The flight simulation system for an unmanned aerial vehicle includes: an operation data acquisition unit configured to acquire operation data of a virtual unmanned aerial vehicle performed by a trainee; a simulator unit configured to calculate, based on geospatial data of a real space and the operation data, a current position of the virtual unmanned aerial vehicle in the real space; and a display unit configured to generate an image of the virtual unmanned aerial vehicle so that the virtual unmanned aerial vehicle is visually recognizable at the current position in the real space, and to output the generated image to the trainee.
