Low-cost system for on-board image processing in real time, applied to disaster mitigation

The climate change that affects our planet is constantly causing natural disasters, due to the increase in temperature, development of extreme rains, rivers overflow; Thus, phenomena such as earthquakes cause destruction bridges and can tsunamis, among other also occur. Current technology allows us observe what happening on thanks use terrestrial observation satellites, these satellite systems, well having advantages, have disadvantages, them we mention presence clouds registration images It carried out based present, another drawbacks visiting time satellites have, which has characteristic area you want record image not always available, therefore wait for day orbit pass through interest be recorded. Due this characteristic, at an emergency, either effect rain, earthquake or similar, when technical conditions cannot registered, alternatives arise, drones, solves a problem cloud cover, because drone flies low altitudes does problems, present work methodology low-cost systems proposed on-board processing drones In way effects disaster mitigated decisions made shortest possible time, consists embedded device, coupled connected camera, information sent ground station, concentrates affected area, proposes intelligent module capable being able process newly acquired board power finalize with reference bank find any land cover send result emergency message its earth proposal it cut download times Analysis if were conventional must first then uncouple end just them. As result, presented by tests detection changes transmission using computer Raspberry pi 3.
