ArXi:2603.14639v1 Announce Type: cross Inspection of confined infrastructure such as culverts often requires accessing hidden spaces whose entrances are reachable primarily from elevated viewpoints. Aerial-ground cooperation enables a UAV to deploy a compact UGV for interior exploration, but selecting a suitable deployment region from aerial observations requires metric terrain reasoning involving scale ambiguity, reconstruction uncertainty, and terrain semantics.
