An unmanned aerial surveillance system in urban environments

Journal Title: Aerospace Research in Bulgaria - Year 2017, Vol 29, Issue

Abstract

Proposed is a concept for a network of unmanned aerial systems for information acquisition in an urban environment. Different possibilities are evaluated using different types of aircraft, sensors and systems for obtaining the required objective, instrumental real-time information to support the making of adequate and reasoned management decisions, which will greatly contribute to the improvement of the quality of life of the population. The system can be applied for the detection of low flying objects, for monitoring, management and security of urban intersections, underground stations, public and private buildings, and to determine the state of the atmosphere and water areas. It will provide the opportunity to forecast and manage crises that may arise in the context of the critical urban infrastructure.
