The planner guides a quadrotor gathering information through environments by optimizing routes against location-dependent clarity dynamics, then checking routes and their backups with a safety gatekeeper. In simulations, gated trials had 0.0% measured collision time, compared with 2.94% without gating, while information-gathering performance was comparable to an ergodic baseline. The safety result applies to tested conditions, not all environments.
