UAV to detect natural hazards

Hello everyone , Im doing my final year design project on a UAV to detect natural hazards and need some help. Im kind of new to UAVs so I would really like you guys to assist me if you can. 

I wanted to know the various types of sensors involved , the programming needed , best suited brushless motors, blades , material selection ,frame , payload and calculations involved 

Any information to assist would be appreciated

  • Hi Kurt,

    This is a non-trivial problem. Many companies are working this, each with a different approach. If it was easy, every drone would already come with hazard detection sensors and software. As a final year project this is probably way too much to take on if you begin from scratch. Perhaps you could consider starting with off-the-shelf drone hardware and then integrating a hazard sensor into the operating system.
