Abstract: Abstract. In this work we propose an effective radiation source localization device employing a RIEGL VUX-1UAV laser scanner and a highly sensitive Hotzone Technologies gamma radiation probe mounted on a RiCOPTER UAV combined with real-time data processing. The on-board processing and radio communication system integrated within the UAV enables instant and continuously updated access to georeferenced 3D lidar point clouds and gamma radiation intensities. Further processing is done fully automated on the ground. We present a novel combination of...
