A lighter-than-air aircraft , comprising: - a plurality of sensors placed all around the lighter-than-air aircraft, said plurality of sensors being arranged in order to remotely measure a wind before this wind comes into contact with the lighter-than-air aircraft , - actuators , arranged in order to modify a position of the lighter-than-air aircraft as a function of instructions received by the actuators in order to compensate for the effect of the wind on the lighter-than-air aircraft - an on-board database in the lighter-than-air aircraft , the database associating different wind measurement values with different instructions intended for the actuators , - analysis and control means , arranged or programmed to: o receive wind measurement values originating from the sensors , o search, within the database , for a match between the wind measurement values originating from the sensors located all around the lighter-than-air aircraft, and determine, as a function of this search, instructions to be sent to the actuators , o send these determined instructions to the actuators characterized in that the sensors are arranged to measure winds in several directions or from several origins, the sensors being arranged for measuring wind measurement values for several points in space around the lighter-than-air aircraft, the database associating wind measurement values with instructions intended for the actuators the instructions being provided to the actuators in order to adjust a position of the flying lighter-than-air aircraft to compensate for the effect of the remotely measured wind on the lighter-than-air aircraft . - a plurality of sensors placed all around the lighter-than-air aircraft, said plurality of sensors being arranged in order to remotely measure a wind before this wind comes into contact with the lighter-than-air aircraft , - actuators , arranged in order to modify a position of the lighter-than-air aircraft as a function of instructions received by the actuators in order to compensate for the effect of the wind on the lighter-than-air aircraft - an on-board database in the lighter-than-air aircraft , the database associating different wind measurement values with different instructions intended for the actuators , - analysis and control means , arranged or programmed to: o receive wind measurement values originating from the sensors , o search, within the database , for a match between the wind measurement values originating from the sensors located all around the lighter-than-air aircraft, and determine, as a function of this search, instructions to be sent to the actuators , o send these determined instructions to the actuators characterized in that the sensors are arranged to measure winds in several directions or from several origins, o receive wind measurement values originating from the sensors , o search, within the database , for a match between the wind measurement values originating from the sensors located all around the lighter-than-air aircraft, and determine, as a function of this search, instructions to be sent to the actuators , o send these determined instructions to the actuators characterized in that the sensors are arranged to measure winds in several directions or from several origins, the sensors being arranged for measuring wind measurement values for several points in space around the lighter-than-air aircraft, the database associating wind measurement values with instructions intended for the actuators the instructions being provided to the actuators in order to adjust a position of the flying lighter-than-air aircraft to compensate for the effect of the remotely measured wind on the lighter-than-air aircraft . <EOS>
