Application of Unpiloted Aircraft in Land Resource Management of Sichuan Province

Abstract:

For defects of traditional aviation photography and remote sensing satellite, developing unpiloted aircraft technology for land resource management in Sichuan Province is essential for land resource administration. Unpiloted aircraft technology is a development of traditional aviation photography, which wipes out many shortages of those technologies. It has features of low cost, easy control, quick responsiveness, high processing speed, and capacity of taking high definition aviation photography. This article focuses on features, system organization, and unsolved problems of unpiloted aircraft photography system. The research team has to use knowledge in many categories to design an unpiloted aircraft system, such as artificial intelligence, aviation, topography, and information technology. Moreover, this article introduces applications of this technology in land resource management, geo-hazard prevention, mineral resource protection, and many other orientations in Sichuan Province. In addition the perspective of using unpiloted aircraft in geo-hazard prevention is analyzed and some ideal results are also introduced.
