With the development of marine economy, the scale of marine development is gradually expanding. With the increase of ships, the importance of maritime inspection management has become increasingly prominent. Maritime inspections not only need to monitor water traffic and ship pollution, manage the order and environment of navigation, but also be responsible for navigation security. However, the traditional maritime inspection is mainly based on manpower, and requires a lot of manpower and material resources. The inspection time is long and the efficiency is low. In order to improve inspection efficiency and improve maritime inspection management, UAV technology has emerged as the times require.
UAV maritime inspection application:
UAV maritime inspection is the use of UAVs for maritime surveillance and patrol operations. Drones can provide a cost-effective way to monitor and patrol large areas of open water as well as coastal areas. Drones can be used to map and monitor the marine environment, detect and identify potential hazards, and provide critical intelligence in real time. Drones can also be used to track and monitor ships and vessels, detect illegal activity, and provide support for search and rescue missions. The drone’s ability to fly at low altitudes and provide a more comprehensive picture of the marine environment makes it an ideal tool for maritime inspection and surveillance operations.
UAV maritime inspections are mainly divided into water inspections and shore-based inspections. Water inspection is the inspection of ships in the ocean with the help of drone technology, which can quickly and accurately collect the position, shape, status and surrounding environment information of the ship, and monitor them in real time to better control and Manage ship operations. Shore-based inspection is to use drones to inspect ships on land. It can collect information such as the shape, internal structure, and coating of the ship, and detect the damage of the ship in time, so that effective remedial measures can be taken in time.
UAV maritime inspection can effectively improve the level of maritime safety and ensure the safe driving of ships. Moreover, the visual positioning system of the UAV can provide accurate location information, effectively reducing the cost of maritime inspections, shortening the inspection time, and improving the efficiency of inspections.
UAV maritime inspection technology can not only improve inspection efficiency, but also reduce labor costs, wider inspection range, safer and more reliable, and is an effective means of marine safety management. In addition, UAV maritime inspection technology can also provide comprehensive data support, making ship management more scientific and helping to improve the level of marine safety management.
