An Insight on Drone Applications in Surveillance Domain

Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV), also referred as drone, is the rapid development of the technology. The Drone requires a critical infrastructure element, tools, ground station, communication links, server, and application services. The existing system has drawbacks, such as vulnerability, unsafe, risk and unsecured systems etc. To overcome the limitations, the application of Drones in Surveillance uses ground to ground, ground to air and air to air communication. The significant features of drone include takeoff, landing, traveling with payload, record the data, functional operations, and application services. The system with a high-resolution camera can record the data in a specific area using Global Positioning System (GPS), embedded systems, controllers, and concern application(s). The inevitable usage of drones in Surveillance includes the evidence collection in the investigation process during the Forensic study/police investigations. The work can be extended to intelligent navigation with target mission-critical applications in military/defense.
