Summary: A novel approach is described for the real-time coordination of multivehicle teams to perform reconnaissance and surveillance missions. Our approach incorporates a powerful algorithmic framework, which we have used to develop dynamic route and sensor planning algorithms for multivehicle team coordination. Furthermore, this framework allows the development of a class of algorithms to match the extent of communication and coordination permissible for the particular mission. We have implemented a prototype of this framework and presented results for the case when full coordination between the teammates is allowed.
