Autonomous Monitoring of Air Quality Through an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle.

The monitoring of air quality allows to evaluate the amount of harmful particles for health that are being released. Under this paradigm and knowing the current methods to monitor these parameters, this work proposes the use of a UAV for commercial use and the construction of a card for gas measurement. Additionally and with the objective of having complete control over the vehicle, the article proposes the development of a library for the control and monitoring of the instrumentation of a commercial drone, through which the validation of control algorithms is proposed. As a result of this work, two real experiments on a rural environment and an urban environment are carried out to validate both the library created and the method of acquiring information on air quality.
