  • sending the pattern of path information to two or more drone processes;

    receiving, from the two or more drone processes, path data containing paths satisfying the pattern along with payload information corresponding to the paths;

    aggregating the path data received from the two or more drone processes so that two or more identical paths appearing in the path data are reduced to a single occurrence of a path; and
