Advantages of the drones

Drones are an avant-garde technology and at our fingertips that have gained much popularity in recent years, but is it just a passing fad or are they here to stay? ...

 

Versatility:

Drones are unmanned flight vehicles that vary in size and are enabled to work and link with other tools taking advantage of the visual perspective that is achieved from the air; take photographs, visualize and measure land and routes, make architectural surveys, industrial development plans and primary sector, among others regardless of the terrain conditions we have. Using drones, we have absolute versatility about the shots we want to take, the areas we want to observe and the space through which we need to travel. There is a diversity and variety of types and sizes of drones and unmanned aircraft that adapt to the needs of almost any planning task, visualization of land with technical and / or creative objectives.

Low cost:

The costs that we need to be able to use the applications of the drones, are substantively inferior to other options and techniques used so far to achieve the same results. The price per hour of flight is lower in drones than in airplanes or helicopters and it is possible to introduce price ranges that until now were inaccessible

for other sectors and markets.

Time reduction:

The drones favor the reduction of times, making the tasks more efficient if we compare it with any other solution. There are drone options and combinations of tools that adapt to these, achieving jobs where landings and takeoffs are possible almost anywhere (as long as regulations allow), while a small plane has to start and finish its journey in an

airport.

Low environmental impact:

If we look at the distances traveled by a drone to perform a task, they are always inferior to other options, this because we can take off and land very close to the place of operation. As a result, by having smaller routes, environmental pollution also decreases.

In addition, in most cases a drone is moved by means of an electric battery.

Reduce risks:

Being an unmanned device, the risk that is run is lower than in those occasions where the operator or pilot has to be in the same place where the work is being done.

They are precise:

It is clear that, if we are faced with significant wind speeds, drones are not the best to withstand them. But if we are in a minimally controlled and stable environment, we can say that we are facing very precise devices that allow us to have a very controlled flight. Undoubtedly the advantages that the drones provide are wide and exponential; Without hesitation they are here to stay and it will be very difficult to displace the drones from the market. The best thing is to take advantage of these new technologies and benefit from all possible sectors.

What is a drone?

A drone is an unmanned aerial vehicle.Its name is derived from the English drone, which in Spanish is translated as: "male bee". There are drones of different sizes and with different purposes for a long time, but their manufacturing cost was very high for large scale commercialization and did not have the characteristics they currently have.

The main characteristic of a drone is that its flight is controlled remotely. Some through the intervention of software and others directly through a pilot who directs it from the ground.

 

TYPES OF DRONES

 

Drones can be of two types. Those that resemble an airplane: take off, follow a trajectory in the air and land; and those that look like a helicopter: These have the same characteristics as the first, but are able to stay static in the air.

 

These can also be differentiated by their types of platforms, which are basically of two types: fixed wing and rotating wing; The fixed wing has the appearance and shape of a model airplane and the rotary wing is divided into two types: helicopters and multirotors.

 

Multirotors are the most popular tool currently and the one we commonly have in our minds when thinking of a drone. This design provides great versatility and efficiency in operations due to its simplicity in the controls at the time of being piloted and the speed of assembly. It is a stable platform by nature, because the engines are at the same distance from the center of gravity of the aircraft.

According to the number of engines we can also classify them as follows: in trichopters (3 engines), quadcopters (4 engines), hexacopter (6 engines) and octocopter (8 engines); and according to the configuration of the arms its classification is: in "Y" (Greek i), " Y inverted" (inverted Greek i), "X", "+" (cross).

 

On the other hand, there are also coaxial multirotors - that is, two motors per arm. This provides a saving in the weight of the apparatus by having half the arms but, on the contrary, aerodynamic efficiency is reduced. When choosing between a multi-rotor or another, we must take into account that more arms represent greater stability and greater safety, while more engines represent greater propulsion and, therefore, higher battery consumption.

Currently, the advantages of using drones are many thanks to the technology that has been developed, and due to its different sizes and capacities it is possible to fly, assess and visualize all kinds of areas and routes that in the past were inaccessible.

With unmanned aircraft we have absolute freedom and versatility to generate graphic shots of infinity of areas and terrains that we want to observe and visualize, dictating and choosing with total freedom the route and the space for which we want to travel.

There is no tool more versatile than a drone to generate visual content and perform tasks that until now implied a high investment of resources for its realization. The creative and technological capabilities of a drone are endless and applicable to any type of project. The advantages (in price, management, operability, etc.) are substantial compared to other tools and methods.

Faro Cancun in Drone

FARO CANCÚN

At present, the use of lighthouses is almost obsolete thanks to the use of GPS navigation systems. In Mexico, however, currently operate 135 along the coasts and coast of the nation, are a historical legacy and symbol of cultural identity.

Depending on its use, there are three types of lighthouses: 1) those of landfall that facilitate the arrival of ships; 2) Intermediate, they work as complements of lighthouses of arrival, they are in the coasts and offer aid to the navigator; and 3) situation, and serve to indicate accidents or risk situations for navigation (Government of the Republic, 2017).

The lighthouse of Costa Cancun is iconic of the hotel zone, a place recognized for its harmony and beauty that allows you to enjoy and capture unforgettable postcards. Supposedly it is a place of public access -as- according to Mexican legislation, the beaches are federal property and free of traffic (Luckie, 2018).

Accessing the lighthouse can be complicated, since there are no free passes due to the excessive sale of lots and uncontrolled hotel construction; If you try to enter the beach, the nearest access is through Playa Caracol. In an interview with Helena Hernandez, Tiziana Roma mentions the following (2018): "little by little, access to the beach has been limited to citizens (...) previously the first inhabitants of Cancun could freely enjoy the beaches, but now it seems that the population was strange or foreign and each time has less opportunity to enjoy it ".

 

Let's take care of what we have, this is Mexico.

Drones and Environment

DRONES Y MEDIO AMBIENTE

En los últimos 15 años ha aumentado el uso de drones para el monitoreo de la vida silvestre y su hábitat, con ellos se pueden obtener mapas en alta resolución, información para conocer el estado atmosférico, evaluación del impacto de obras y planificación urbana, vigilancia, etc. Esto a un bajo costo en tiempo y recursos, y con la posibilidad de tener información valiosa en cualquier época del año. Su uso se enfoca en particular a la fauna sensible en zonas poco accesibles o para especies raras de difícil detección u observación. Las rutas de navegación de los drones se pueden programar previamente, al igual que las zonas de despegue y aterrizaje, por lo que la información puede ser recaudada prácticamente de manera automática.

 

Deforestación

Los drones pueden ayudar con actividades relacionadas al cultivo, cuidado y explotación de los bosques y montes (silvicultura). Como lo muestra el ingeniero Lauren Fletcher de la Universidad de Oxford, quien diseña drones capaces de llevar a cabo siembras masivas de árboles para combatir la deforestación esparciendo semillas desde el aire. También son muy eficientes para detectar incendios y determinar con precisión la zona de fuego para extinguirlo de manera efectiva.

Los drones pueden ser útiles herramientas para medir la contaminación del aire, detectar áreas de deforestación, ayudar a la aplicación de pesticidas y fertilizantes, monitorear bosques, selvas, y hasta vigilar las costas marinas para detectar posibles riesgos y visualizar desastres e impactos naturales. Pueden capturar imagines durante 24 horas para una supervisión constante en tiempo real.

Protección de la vida silvestre

Desde el aire, un dron se pueden cuantificar las especies de flora y fauna, realizar descripciones de paisaje y detectar actividades humanas que impactan los ecosistemas. Las reservas naturales los utilizan para protegerlas y vigilarlas de cazadores furtivos; previenen ataques, adquieren evidencia para procesos legales o son utilizados como elemento disuasorio.

También pueden localizar y monitorear la actividad de animales a través de geolocalizadores que funcionan en tiempo real. En concreto, esta tecnología ha sido utilizada en los parques nacionales de Namibia para la protección de elefantes y rinocerontes, incluso se han utilizado para identificar nidos y camas de orangutanes y madrigueras de roedores.

Utilizar drones en pro del medio ambiente es fundamental en nuestros días. El acceso a hábitats poco estudiados, la observación de especies difíciles de filmar o la posibilidad de sobrevolar situaciones complejas es ahora posible.
