Unmanned drone stations for automatic charging have been developed in order to overcome the flying time limitation of rotary wing drones. Since the drone stations is an unmanned operating system, each of the drones will be required to have a high degree of landing accuracy. Drone precision landing has been mainly studied depended on image processing technologies, but the image processing systems make several problems, such as the mission weight, the drone cost, and the development complexity increases, and the flight time decrease. Thus, this paper researched accuracy of precision landing based on RTK (real time kinetics) for rotary wing drones. For the experiments of RTK based precision landing, a drone repeatedly performed three missions. The survey accuracies of the RTK about missions respectively were set as 0.3, 0.2, and 0.1 meters. Each mission has one take-off point, two way-points and one landing-point, and was repeated ten times. The experiment results revealed landing error distance means of around 0.258, 0.12 and 0.057 meters on each of RTK setting.

With the popularization of drones and the ease of use of the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS), drone photogrammetry for terrain information has been widely used. Drone photogrammetry enables the realization of high-accuracy three-dimensional topography for the entire area with less effort and time compared to the past direct survey using GNSS or total station. From 3-D topographic data, various topographical analysis is possible. To improve the accuracy of drone photogrammetry, direct GCP surveying in the field is essential, and the numbers and reasonable positioning of GCPs are very important. In the case of beaches or tidal flats on the west coast of Korea, the numbers and location of GCPs are important factors in efficient drone photogrammetry because of the size of the area, difficulties of movement, and the risk from tides. If the RTK (Real-time kinematic) or PPK (Post-processed kinematic) method is used, the increased accuracy of the drone's location enables high-accuracy photogrammetry with a small number of GCPs. This study presents an efficient drone photogrammetry method in terms of time and economy by comparing and analyzing the results of drone photogrammetry using Non-PPK with low-cost PPK-Kit, based on the tests of various numbers and locations of GCPs in the university field including various slopes and structures like coastal terrain.

Remotely Piloted Aircraft (RPA) controls as a type of unmanned aerial vehicle (drone) is growing rapidly and its flight controller stick disposition is required standardization. We should standardize RPA drone flight control disposition because the flight pilot of RPA is hard to be trained so the flight controller stick differences impairs safety and wastes time and effort of flight controller industry. So this study researches the on-going standardization of RPA drone flight control disposition in Korea and foreign countries. Also this paper analyzes and researches of expert about RPA drone flight controller function and application of flight control mode. I accomplished expert research about standardization plan of unmanned flight control mode and confirm the necessity. Nowadays mode1 and 2 are mostly used in Korea so I carried out preference investigation for two modes. There were 4 preferences choices of RPA drone control mode necessity (importance) and recommendation of standardization modes. They answered that necessity of standardization is important considering pilot training, flight safety and positive development of drone industry. The result of standardization mode preference is that they prefer mode 2 (drone maker 86%, training facilities and research facilities 58%, government bureau 60%). Overall preference result shows that mode 1 24%, mode 1&2 16%, mode 2 60%. So they preferred mode 2 by 60%. The differences between two modes are the direction of throttle and pitch. Direction of throttle and pitch operate opposite way. They prefer mode 2 because mode 2 has similarities of manned flight control mode. Significance of this study is that it showed the necessity of standardization and flight control preference in a quantitative way. It will help drone standardization in related industries and development direction near future.

In this research, we suggest a real-time tele-driving system for unmanned drone operations using the LTE communication system. The drone operator is located 180km away and controls the altitude and position of the drone with a 50ms time delay. The motion data and video from the drone is streamed to the operator. The video is played on the operator's head-mounted display (HMD) and the motion data emulates the drone on the simulator for the operator. In general, a drone is operated using RF signal and the maximum distance for direct control is limited to 2km. For long range drone control over 2km, an auto flying mode is enabled using a mission plan along with GPS data. In an emergency situation, the autopilot is stopped and the "return home" function is executed. In this research, the immersion tele-driving system is suggested for drone operation with a 50ms time delay using LTE communication. A successful test run of the suggested tele-driving system has already been performed between an operator in Daejeon and a drone in Inje (Gangwon-Do) which is approximately 180km apart.

With the development and popularization of drone manufacturing technology, the drone market, which was mainly focused on industry, agriculture, and military, is also showing great growth in individual and commercial markets. Among them, DJI has a high share in the personal and commercial drone market, and accordingly, forensic analysis of DJI drones is drawing attention. In particular, when stealing and analyzing drones used in criminal acts, a technology to interpret flight logs recording drone flight paths and hardware information is needed, which inevitably applies drone models due to differences in decryption methods. Therefore, when an unidentified drone is acquired from the perspective of a digital forensic investigator, a clear classification of a drone model to which analysis can be applied is required. This paper proposes a method of extracting and analyzing artifacts of DJI drones through forensics, and analyzes media data analysis and flight log analysis results and decryption methods for three drone models with different release years of DJI. Finally, drones in the DJI product line are classified according to whether the commercialized DJI drone flight log is decrypted.

The mobile observation method, in which a meteorological drone observes while ascending, can observe the vertical profile of wind at 1 m-interval. In addition, since continuous flights are possible at time intervals of less than 30 minutes, high-resolution observation data can be obtained both spatially and temporally. In this study, we verify the accuracy of mobile observation data from meteorological drone (drone) and fill the spatio-temporal observation gaps in the lower atmosphere. To verify the accuracy of mobile observation data observed by drone, it was compared with rawinsonde observation data. The correlation coefficients between two equipment for a wind speed and direction were 0.89 and 0.91, and the root mean square errors were 0.7 m s^-1 and 20.93°. Therefore, it was judged that the drone was suitable for observing vertical profile of the wind using mobile observation method. In addition, we attempted to resolve the observation gaps in the lower atmosphere. First, the vertical observation gaps of the wind profiler between the ground and the 150 m altitude could be resolved by wind observation data using the drone. Secondly, the temporal observation gaps between 3-hour interval in the rawinsonde was resolved through a drone observation case conducted in Taean-gun, Chungcheongnam-do on October 13, 2022. In this case, the drone mobile observation data every 30-minute intervals could observe the low-level jet more detail than the rawinsonde observation data. These results show that the mobile observation data of the drone can be used to fill the spatio-temporal observation gaps in the lower atmosphere.
