Abstract(s)
A investigação baseou-se no raciocínio indutivo e numa estratégia qualitativa, adotandose
como desenho de pesquisa o caso de estudo, recorrendo à análise documental e a
entrevistas semiestruturadas. O objetivo geral foi decomposto em três objetivos específicos.
Inicialmente, efetuou-se a caraterização dos sistemas não tripulados de aquisição de dados
topo-hidrográficos, descrevendo como se classificam e distinguindo as respetivas capacidades
e técnicas. Posteriormente, detalhou-se a relação existente entre a capacidade topohidrográfica
das Forças Armadas e o planeamento e execução das suas missões, nas vertentes
política e estratégica. Finalmente, evidenciaram-se as melhorias na eficiência e eficácia dos
levantamentos topo-hidrográficos que podem advir da utilização de sistemas não tripulados.
A investigação permitiu concluir que: os diferentes tipos de sistemas não tripulados possuem
potencialidades e vulnerabilidades específicas; a capacidade topo-hidrográfica deve ter um
papel destacado na edificação da estratégia de Defesa Nacional; e a utilização de sistemas não
tripulados melhora a eficiência e a eficácia da atual capacidade topo-hidrográfica das Forças
Armadas.
This study used an inductive approach, a qualitative research methodology and a case study research strategy with documentary analysis and semi-structured interviews. The general objective was broken down into three specific objectives. The study begins by describing unmanned systems for topo-hydrographic data collection according to capabilities and techniques. Next, the study examined the relationship between the Armed Forces’ topohydrographic capacity and the planning and execution of the Armed Forces missions from a political and strategic perspective. Finally, the study explained how unmanned systems can enhance the efficiency and effectiveness of topo-hydrographic surveying. It was found that: different types of unmanned systems have specific strengths and weaknesses; topohydrographic capacity should play a prominent role in the National Defence strategy; the use of unmanned systems enhances the efficiency and effectiveness of the Armed Forces’ topo-hydrographic capacity.
