Abstract

The purpose of this chapter is to review the dispersed uses of drone technologies within the built environment and as an instrument of climate change study. Unmanned aerial vehicles (or drones) have become very useful for environmental scientists to collect data, monitor, and analyse in the urban environment. The first section provides extensive details about drones operating. The systems showcase complex capabilities because they incorporate high-quality cameras together with LiDAR sensors and thermal imaging equipment. Modern tools developed for drones allow researchers to obtain precise measurements of space and environment information needed for urban climate analysis. Furthermore, the chapter investigates the integration of drone technology into environmental research and urban analysis. The paper describes essential applications of drone systems beginning with urban heat island mapping followed by building energy efficiency assessment and air quality management and finishing with greenhouse gas emission location work.
