A method of implementing a plurality of unmanned vehicles over an obstacle
field. The method includes obtaining a physical map of the obstacle
field. Discretizing the physical map into traversable edges that avoid
the obstacles, the traversable edges meeting at nodes. Replacing sections
of the traversable edges that are beyond the maneuverability of the
unmanned vehicles with traversable arcs. Determining traverse time
parameters associated with paths through the obstacle fields, each path
made up of select traversable edges and select traversable arcs and using
the traverse time parameters in planning and scheduling the vehicles.
