Claim 17:
18. One or more non-transitory computer readable media comprising computer-executable instructions, wherein the computer-executable instructions, when executed by a computer processing component, cause the computer processing component to perform operations comprising:
receiving first position data from a first position indicating sensor proximate to an inspection station that is coupled to an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) deployment vehicle, wherein the first position data comprises at least one of global positioning system coordinates or cellular triangulation coordinates of the UAV deployment vehicle;
receiving second position data from a second position indicating sensor affixed to an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), wherein the second position data comprises at least one of global positioning system coordinates or cellular triangulation coordinates of the UAV, and the second position data is collected while the UAV is maintained in the inspection station;
determining a discrepancy exists between the first position data and the second position data; and
responsive to determining the discrepancy exists, providing correction information to the UAV, wherein the UAV uses the correction information to calibrate the second position indicating sensor.
