Applications of Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems

Best Practices and Case Studies

Herausgeber: Sharma, J. B.

Beschreibung

Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems can access hazardous or inaccessible areas during disaster events and provide rapid response. This is the first book that brings together the best practices of sUAS applied to a broad range of issues in high spatial resolution mapping projects. The case studies included in this book are sUAS based projects.
