MAPPING OF SURFACE OBJECTS AND PHENOMENA USING UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLE FOR THE PURPOSES OF CRISIS

Unmanned Aerial Vehicle is a modern technology, which began to use for mapping the surface of objects. They also serve as carriers of various sensing devices, the most common equipment is cameras and camcorders. The trend in this area is equipped with a navigation technologies - Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) and inertial measurement system, which serve to orientation in space. Based on these, the drones become almost independent of the ground control station and drawn images at predetermined positions. It is for these reasons, the UAV began to use as an effective tool for mapping objects and phenomena for the purposes of crisis management. This contribution will be given to mapping of the surface objects and photogrammetric data collection. Aerial Photogrammetry is a surveying method designed to collect data using photographic equipment (camera) to make the data thus obtained, orthophotos, topographic maps or 3D terrain models. These outputs are then used as the underlying digital data in crisis management.
