Abstract
An Unmanned Aerial vehicle (UAV), commonly known as drone, is an aircraft without a human pilot aboard. In recent years, some UAVs are deployed for civil applications, such as policing, firefighting, air pollution monitoring, and aerial search and rescue, etc. Unmanned Aerial vehicle generally include fixed-wing and multi-rotor aircrafts. This research had developed a high endurance quadcopter for search and rescue mission. Target position correction software also was developed in this research. This program uses GPS coordinates embedded in the EXIF information of the aerial photos and more accurately calculates the target’s position. The target’s position error is less than ten meters in 75 meters altitude. Keywords: target position correction software, search and rescue, UAV, quadcopter, and GPS.
