Vehículos aéreos no tripulados (UAV) en la recolección de información primaria en sistemas de alcantarillado en Colombia.

Abstract

This monograph examines the implementation of drones in various applications, highlighting their impact in terms of efficiency, safety and precision in different sectors. Case studies and pilot projects are analyzed where drones have been used for infrastructure inspection, environmental monitoring, precision agriculture and emergency services. In this sense, the purpose of this research is to highlight the importance of the implementation of drones in the inspection of sewage systems in Colombia, as well as its development and advances in recent years. The study methodology was based on a correlation analysis of keywords, countries and years, through VOSviewer and bibliometrix, using the database of the University of Pamplona to search for scientific articles on platforms such as Scopus and ScienceDirect, where there was a focus on the applications, background, regulations and the different software used to successfully carry out any drone project, taking full advantage of the advantages that this advanced technology can offer in various applications. The technologies and methodologies used to capture and analyze data are explored, including the use of high-resolution cameras, multispectral sensors, and global positioning systems. The research concludes that the adoption of drones in sewer inspection can optimize the management of urban infrastructure in Colombia, offering a more effective and safe solution as it demonstrates significant improvements in information collection, reduction of operating costs and faster response times rapid.
