Abstract

The paper considers possible aspects of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to predict and prevent dangerous situations associated with floods, waterlogging, and stream rise in the territories of settlements in modern conditions. Besides, a historical analysis of such cataclysms was carried out for the period from 2019 to 2020, which deserves the special attention of scientists. The relevance of the paper is undoubted, since the symbiosis of nature and man gives rise to destructive phenomena against the background of an incorrect interaction of these two units. The paper is divided into 5 main sections, which include: introduction, history of floods, possible use of UAVs in water accidents, and further actions after the work of UAVs is done and the conclusions.
