Objective. The aim of the study is to develop an algorithm for monitoring forest fire zones, carried out by unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).Method. The study is based on methods of algorithmic support, methods of analysis and synthesis of automated control systems for technological objects.Result. The technologies and methods for monitoring forest fires are considered, which confirms the relevance of the use of UAVs to perform these tasks. An algorithm for the use of UAV swarms for monitoring forest fire zones is presented. The algorithm includes enlarged stages of decomposition of the global problem, distribution of tasks, application of methods of collective decision-making, etc.Conclusion. The proposed algorithm can be implemented subject to the development of swarm control theory.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
