The use of unmanned aerial vehicles in the monitoring of water bodies

Abstract

It is believed that the main role in the pollution of the aquatic environment is played by the dumping of industrial waste. Also, it is not necessary to neglect the sphere of agriculture, which actively uses fertilizers and insect repellents for growing plants, and the livestock sector has received massive development. In turn, poorly treated municipal discharges also affect the quality of surface water. To solve a variety of environmental problems, it has become available today to apply remote monitoring methods using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).
