USE OF UNMANNED AIRCRAFT IN FOREST ECONOMY
Journal Title: Zarządzanie ochroną przyrody w lasach - Year 2015, Vol 0, Issue 1
Abstract
Unmanned Aircraft that initially was treated as a “toy” in time and with technological progress have become a rightful tool used in economy including forestry and environment protection. Technical potential of unmanned aircraft allow them, but for operator-controlled flights, to perform autonomic flights (a planned route) with a cargo of a few or even a few dozens of kilograms. The aircraft being equipped with various recording devices can be used for purposes of fire protection, environment protection, protection and cultivation of forests, wildlife management, and forest arrangement. The use of unmanned aircraft in economy offers yet another advantage, namely a low cost of use compared to manned aviation as well as large mobility of devices. Thanks to live preview image unmanned aircrafts allow to observe dangerous situations such as forest fires, looking for missing people or other various rescue operations. The use of unmanned aircraft is limited by regulations of aviation law that allows only the commercial use of the aircraft by persons having a qualifying certificate of an unmanned aircraft operator in flights performed in view.
