FIELD
[001] The present subject matter described herein, in general, relates to a system and a method for generating a map, and more particularly a system and a method for generating a map of an enclosed area by utilizing a plurality of unmanned vehicles.
BACKGROUND
[002] Search and rescue operations may be understood as searching for and providing of aid to people who are in distress or imminent danger. The general field of search and rescue includes many specialty sub-fields, usually determined by the type of terrain the search is conducted over. These include mountain rescue; ground search and rescue, including the use of search and rescue dogs; urban search and rescue in cities; combat search and rescue on the battlefield and air-sea rescue over water. In some conditions, the search and rescue operations are dangerous operations, such a building fire and thus can greatly benefit from the use of unmanned vehicles (UV) to survey the environment, develop a map, and collect evidence about the position of a missing person.
[003] In enclosed space searching and rescue operations, such as building or a cave, detailed information and maps of the enclosed area are generally unavailable. Thus implementing a search and rescue operation is a challenging task. The conventional systems using a single UV require lot of time to perform a search and generate a map. Further, as in case of emergencies time is of essence and conventional systems fail to execute the searching and mapping operation in a shorter period of time. Thus there exists a need to map and search an enclosed area in a short amount of time.
[004] Furthermore, the conventional UV and mapping methodology has been developed based on the availability of GPS throughout the mapping operation. Such conventional systems fail during unavailability of GPS, typically encountered inside the enclosed area such as a cave. Thus there is a need to develop a system and method to search and generating map an enclosed area in absence of GPS.

Upon detection of conflict, the sub-path module 214 may designate a new sub-path to at least one of the unmanned vehicle based on the detection.
GENERATION MODULE 216
[033] In the implementation upon designating and scanning the sub-paths, the generation module 216 may generate a map of the enclosed area. In an embodiment, the generation may be based on an aggregation of the scanning of each of the primary paths and the sub-paths scanned by the set of the unmanned vehicles. Further, the generation module 216 may store the map in the system data 220.
[034] In one other embodiment, the generation module 216 may generate a map in real-time and provide the map to a user. In one more embodiment, the generation module 216 may identify one or more objects in the enclosed area based on scanning. In one example, the one or more objects may be one of an animate object, such as human, animal etc. or an inanimate object, laptop, book etc. as predefined by a user. Upon identifying the object, the generation module 216 may notify the user with a location of the object in the map of the enclosed area, enabling easy retrieval.
