FIELD: geophysics.

SUBSTANCE: group of inventions relates to the field of geophysics and can be used to provide geophysical services in the field of subsurface use: prospecting, exploration and production of hydrocarbons, other minerals, as well as during engineering-geological and hydrogeological studies. The essence of the claimed technical solution is a method for multifunctional aerial photography based on unmanned aircraft for planning and monitoring seismic surveys, which consists in creating a flight task and choosing the take-off and landing point of an unmanned aircraft. The composition and layout of the payload sensors are selected, and at the selected point the following is installed: a ground workstation, a ground part of the data transmission subsystem, a ground part of the synchronization and high-precision positioning unit. An unmanned aircraft is equipped and launched. After the arrival of an unmanned aircraft at the first point of the study area, a command to the payload sensors is sent through the on-board computer of the data transmission subsystem using application software to start the recording process. After the end of the flight task, the payload sensors are given a command to stop recording, the unmanned aircraft lands at the landing point. Next, the memory carrier of the onboard part of the data transmission subsystem is transmitted to the ground workstation, the data from which is processed using application software. A multifunctional hardware and software complex for the implementation of the above method is also proposed, containing an unmanned aircraft, a synchronization and high-precision positioning unit, including on-board and ground parts, a data transmission subsystem, including on-board and ground parts, a block of geophysical sensors as part of a payload with the possibility of registering physical fields in the study area, a ground workstation with application software with the ability to control a multifunctional hardware and software complex.

EFFECT: possibility of a comprehensive assessment of the influence of the composition of the upper part of the section (UPS) and terrain conditions on the results of seismic work due to the expanded layout of payload blocks; the versatility of the claimed complex, a high degree of joint coordinate binding of data obtained using different sensors of payload blocks.
