A visual guidance system may include a drone having a sensor. The drone may be configured to autonomously position the sensor outside a vehicle with a line of sight to a current path of the vehicle to collect path data. The visual guidance system may also include a controller in communication with the sensor and configured to provide visual guidance to a vehicle operator based on the path data. Example methods of providing visual guidance may include autonomously positioning a sensor outside a vehicle using a drone such that the sensor has a line of sight to a current path of the vehicle to collect path data. Example methods may also include using a controller to determine visual guidance from the path data and provide the visual guidance to a vehicle operator.
