Implementation of AI in Drones: Offering Seamless Possibilities in Land Surveying
Drones are originally known as Unmanned Ariel Vehicle (UAV’s), a smart technology that is being utilized in many forms from Commercial Ariel Surveillance, Motion picture, Disaster relief, Agriculture, Real Estate to construction and now Market Research has found a way to make survey and mapping more effective. In the last 5 years its popularity and application has witnessed multifold growth which is expected to continue with rising awareness and adoption rate.
Though UAVs first invented in 1900 but its adoption has grown in recent past driven by high usage of electronic products and amalgamation of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) making it more user friendly and technologically advanced to produce better results.
Adoption of Drones Land Survey and Mapping
Drones are equipped with sensors and cameras; the photogrammetric images obtained using advanced cameras help to evaluate the accuracy of different survey methods. In present scenario digital cameras help to create 3-D maps for land and sea surveyors and it has been identified that the results obtained from 3-D maps are more effective & accurate. Drones have shown their competency in monitoring the river/sea water level to predict any exigency which needs to be addressed in advance whereas equivalent satisfactory results are generated while assessing dense forests.
The popularity of surveyor drones has spread worldwide where not only private companies but government agencies are also getting benefitted, such devices play a significant role in infrastructure development. It is essential to have detailed overview of the area to understand the development plan, where drones are proving a better solution with its capability to equip different payloads including digital cameras thermal cameras, LiDAR and more. Such devices have been useful for scientific research where mapping and prediction is required.
Land survey is the most time-consuming task where manual process sometimes defeats the objective of conducting the survey due to ecological and topological challenges; such as coastal areas witness changes rapidly where drones help to take pictures in fraction of seconds and later with the help of algorithms a seamless image is constructed.
Future of Drones in Field Surveys
According to Makreo Research and Consulting, AI and ML are further shaping up the tools to be used in Drones more effectively thus we could say it’s the infancy stage and more developments can be expected in near future that will transform the way we perceive the usage of technology.
Drones are reshaping the land survey and mapping industry with technologically advanced features. Such surveys cost less and offer more accurate results due to which in India land surveyors and government agencies are learning to adopt such time saving technologies and looking for more customised solutions.
Every technology comes with its strengths and weaknesses and so as drones where it can be a threat for national security if license to use this technology become easily available. Considering the security threat drones have not been endorsed for public use where at present government has restricted the implementation and so as expected to witness steady growth in near future.
