The Future of Autonomous Drones in Environmental Monitoring and Disaster Management
Authors:-Manjunath.T
Abstract- Autonomous drones are becoming increasingly crucial in a variety of applications, with a particular focus on environmental monitoring and disaster management. These unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are revolutionizing the way we approach environmental challenges by providing real-time data collection, efficient mapping, and analysis of ecosystems that are difficult or hazardous to access. This paper explores the potential of autonomous drones in enhancing environmental monitoring efforts, addressing environmental issues such as climate change, deforestation, and wildlife tracking. Additionally, the paper investigates the role of drones in disaster management, particularly in emergency response, damage assessment, and recovery efforts after natural disasters. With their ability to cover large areas quickly and collect high-resolution data, autonomous drones are positioned to play a key role in shaping future strategies for disaster preparedness and environmental sustainability. The paper also examines the technological advancements driving this transformation, the challenges associated with drone deployment, and the future potential of drones in these critical fields.
