APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR ESTIMATING LOCATION OF POLLUTANT SOURCE

摘要

A method for estimating a location of a pollutant source according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: acquiring wind direction information for a region of interest; Using an unmanned aerial vehicle equipped with a chemical sensor, searching for a contamination concentration of a first plane of interest in the region of interest based on the wind direction information; Lowering an altitude of the UAV by a predetermined descent distance at a descent position determined according to the search resu And if the altitude of the unmanned aerial vehicle is less than or equal to a predetermined reference altitude, estimating an area where a pollutant can exist based on the location of the unmanned aerial vehicle.
