APPLICATION OF UNMANNED AERIAL VEHICLES FOR THE STUDY OF QUARRIES

The purpose of the study is to analyse prospects studying quarry landforms by modern innovative research methods, namely using an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). main tasks this are in village Korystova, create a geomorphological map and digital elevation model, anthropogenic natural- past decade. results landforms, their elements mapping, analysis deformations load for terrain, particular, its processes UAV. source materials detailed surveys surroundings 2015 2021 UAV technologies field over modification. also has applied value mining industry area counting techniques rock process reclamation. A 3D survey as form relief was carried out Korystova Khmelnytskyi region In order morphometric characteristics forms orthophoto plan created, well terrain model (DTM) (DEM). Changes on July compared were analysed, which recorded corresponding model. On basis, maps territory showing major relief. (water erosion, landslides, etc.), state land reclamation, directions further mineral extraction characterized. It demonstrated that means scientific research, such UAVs, promising geographic information should be used both fundamental research. With use, it possible obtain much more data specific natural relief, trace dynamics time space with necessary periodicity. Key words: quarry; reference section; unmanned aerial vehicle; model; morphometry relief; natural-anthropogenic processes.
