Abstract

Using a UAS-mounted sensor to allow for a rapid response to areas in which it may be difficult to reach or may not be safe for humans to encounter can increase the situational awareness of first responders of an aircraft crash site through the remote detection, identification, and quantification of airborne hazardous materials. The primary purpose of this research is to evaluate the innovative remote sensing viability and application of integrating existing commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) sensors with small unmanned aircraft system (UAS) technology to detect potentially hazardous airborne contaminants at optimum range resolutions using UAS platforms.
