In this paper, we introduce two general categories of stochastic trajectory processes that provide uniform Binomial distribution for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in finite convex areas with arbitrary geometry. First, we introduce radial trajectory process as a special case of the first category along with its properties. Then, we delve into the general trajectory processes, namely spiral and oval, and show that independent of the areas geometry, these trajectories not only provide uniform scattering of UAVs but also provide ergodic coverage across the area.
