The Use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) to Disperse Fog and Improve Visibility

Abstract

Ground and aerial movements may be restricted at an airport due to limited visibility caused by fog. Both of these could result in poorer throughput because of the safety considerations associated with tasks that have low visibility. As a result of the vastly increased number of aircraft that are now capable of landing and taking off in situations with extremely low surface visibility, the ultimate capacity limit may on occasion assure the safety of aircraft ground movement. Within the scope of this essay, a suggestion will be made on the development of a model. The usage of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) will be attempted to control or eliminate fog to improve visibility. This will be done by disseminating sufficient material to absorb the moisture and gather the water droplets from the sky.
