1. A wide area sensor system comprising:

  • an unmanned airplane being switchable between an airplane mode for high speed flight and a VTOL mode for low speed flight;

    a state detection sensor provided in the unmanned airplane, the state detection sensor being driven to detect a state of a detection target; and

    an external control apparatus that controls flight of the unmanned airplane and driving of the state detection sensor,wherein the external control apparatus performs high speed sensing by driving the state detection sensor while performing the high speed flight of the unmanned airplane in the airplane mode and performs low speed sensing by driving the state detection sensor while performing the low speed flight of the unmanned airplane in the VTOL mode.
