This work describes the practical implementation of the method for digital noise suppression during processing images containing ice information to recognize automatically the contours of «ice-water» objects during aerial photography. Images containing ice information have special characteristic structural features related to noise, e.g.granularity, glare, ice crumbs. This makes difficult or even impossible to recognize automatically the contours of ice-water objects. It is known that the success of the application of edge recognition methods depends on how much image noise is reduced. The paper discusses the construction method for the management of noise. The method is based on the sequential application of the Haar wavelet transform denoising using thresholding, clustering by k-means method. For the subsequent automatic construction of ice floes contours the Sobel operator is applied.The aim of the work is to develop a method capable to process digital images effectively that contain ice information with strong digital noise. In this work we treated the images of one-year ice containing strong digital image noise in the form of granularity and in the form of ice crumbs. A description of the features of each of the steps of the proposed method and practical application is given.As a result, the method was developed for processing images of ice information containing digital noise in absolute value commensurate with the basic data. It was noted that the use of the k-means method expands the scope. The k-rare method allows more detailed processing of ice information and distinguishes not only the contours of ice-water objects, but also the contours of ice crumbs.The conclusion formulates the main advantages of the method and the possible application of the algorithm in the process of local exploration of the ice conditions of the Northern Sea Route channel using unmanned aerial vehicle for aerial photography. The usage of unmanned aerial vehicle for aerial photography will increase the frequency of weather forecast updates and predict the appearance of ice objects at the ship’s heading. That will allow us to select the safest and most economical efficient route along the Northern Sea Route.The authors have no competing interests.

In the world of photography is very closely related to the unmanned aerial vehicle called drones. Drones mounted camera so that the plane is pilot controlled from the mainland. Photography results were seen by the pilot after the drone aircraft landed. Drones are unmanned drones that are controlled remotely. Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV), is a flying machine that operates with remote control by the pilot. Methode for this research are preparation assembly of drone, planning altitude flying, testing on ground, camera of calibration, air capture, result of aerial photos and analysis of result aerial photos. There are two types of drones, multicopter and fixed wing. Fixed wing  has an airplane like shape with a wing system. Fixed wing use bettery 4000 mAh . Fixed wing drone in this research used   mapping in  This drone has a load ability of 1 kg and operational time is used approximately 30 minutes for an areas 20 to 50 hectares with a height of 100 m  to 200 m and payload 1 kg  above ground level. The aerial photographs in Kotabaru produce excellent aerial photographs that can help mapping the local government in the Kotabaru region.

Maize (zee mays L.) is one of the most important grain crops in China. Lodging is a natural disaster that can cause significant yield losses and threaten food security. Lodging identification and analysis contributes to evaluate disaster losses and cultivates lodging-resistant maize varieties. In this study, we collected visible and multispectral images with an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), and introduce a comprehensive methodology and workflow to extract lodging features from UAV imagery. We use statistical methods to screen several potential feature factors (e.g., texture, canopy structure, spectral characteristics, and terrain), and construct two nomograms (i.e., Model-1 and Model-2) with better validation performance based on selected feature factors. Model-2 was superior to Model-1 in term of its discrimination ability, but had an over-fitting phenomenon when the predicted probability of lodging went from 0.2 to 0.4. The results show that the nomogram could not only predict the occurrence probability of lodging, but also explore the underlying association between maize lodging and the selected feature factors. Compared with spectral features, terrain features, texture features, canopy cover, and genetic background, canopy structural features were more conclusive in discriminating whether maize lodging occurs at the plot scale. Using nomogram analysis, we identified protective factors (i.e., normalized difference vegetation index, NDVI and canopy elevation relief ratio, CRR) and risk factors (i.e., Hcv1) related to maize lodging, and also found a problem of terrain spatial variability that is easily overlooked in lodging-resistant breeding trials.

The application of mobile laser scanning and aerial photography from unmanned aerial vehicles for shooting highways is considered. The aim of the research was to compare the results of shooting using mobile laser scanning systems and aerial photography from an unmanned aerial vehicle to de-termine the preferred option for shooting a highway. The experimental part of the research was carried out using the following equipment: scanning was performed using the Topcon IP - S2 Compact sys-tem, aerial photography was carried out from the GEOSCAN 201 unmanned aerial vehicle. Based on the comparative tests performed on the section of the A - 121 "Sortavala" highway, a comparative analysis of the data obtained for various indicators was carried out: the speed of the shooting stages, the cost of a set of equipment, the cost of shooting, and the accuracy of the results was evaluated. Practical recommendations for the application of these methods are given, their advantages and disad-vantages are indicated.

Abstract. The purpose of the research is to analyze the quality of sowing operations (flaws, sifting), the completeness of seedlings based on multispectral images. The research was carried out in accordance with the purpose of implementing the scientific and technical program “Transfer and adaptation of precision farming technologies in the production of crop production on the principle of "demonstration farms (landfills)” in Kostanay region" in 2019. Methods. To perform monitoring work, an unmanned aerial vehicle of an airplane type was used; a multispectral (MS) camera equipped with sensors of the main channels. Agrotechnical requirements have been developed taking into account the data of the electronic map of fields and the specifics of the region. The analysis of the state of crops using an information and analytical resource was carried out. Results. A survey of agricultural crops was conducted in order to obtain data on the state of the fields by an unmanned aerial vehicle. Aerial photography was performed with the Make sense Red-Edge multispectral camera at an altitude of 300 meters. The survey was carried out over 19 fields in five spectral ranges: blue, green, red, extreme red, near infrared. Aerial photography data are the initial data for the construction of orthophotoplanes, digital surface models, 3D-models. After conducting a flyby of the territory, the general condition of agricultural land was analyzed. Measurements are made on the reference fields using a portable device – an N-tester. The scientific novelty lies in the fact that aerial photography of spring wheat, which is at the stage of 3–4 leaves, was carried out, which revealed changes in the NDVI value, which during the ground survey confirmed an increase in the degree of clogging by annual millet weeds of the selected areas.
