Abstract

Emissions of fuels combustion are one of the main causes of smog formation andgreatly contribute to the increased CO2 emissions in numerous countries. Many citiesdecide to introduce restrictions on the usage of fossil fuels or even completely ban them.To analyze fuel used in households, it is necessary to gain access to the chimney outlet,which may prove difficult. The following article presents the current usage of drones inthe search and analysis of these sources. It presents existing, commercial solutions, aswell as points out areas of current development and attempts to automate the process.
