Brazilian legislation on the use and teaching photogrammetry with drones -

UFSC study of case

Key words: Education, Low cost technology, Photogrammetry

SUMMARY

The technological advance provided the development of remotely piloted aircraft, carrying
photographic camera, with the possibility of tracing preprogrammed routes, with low cost.
Such an expanding market, the Brazilian government has tried to regulate the use of such
equipment, requiring the registration of users in ANATEL (National Telecommunications
Agency) for the use of radiofrequency and ANAC (National Civil Aviation Agency) regarding
the use of airspace. As for photogrammetric flight, only a company can do it and the Ministry
of Defense must authorize the flights. This work addresses the bureaucratic procedures being
carried out by the Federal University of Santa Catarina (UFSC) in order to establish a legal
basis for teaching, research and extension in photogrammetry with drones.

RESUMO

O avanço tecnológico proporcionou o desenvolvimento de aeronaves pilotadas remotamente,

portando câmera fotográfica, com a possibilidade de traçar rotas pré-programadas, com baixo
custo. Em um mercado tão em expansão, o governo brasileiro tem procurado regulamentar o
uso de tais equipamentos, exigindo o cadastramento de usuários na ANATEL (Agência
Nacional de Telecomunicações) para o uso de radiofreqüência e ANAC (Agência Nacional de
Aviação Civil) quanto ao uso do espaço aéreo. Quanto ao vôo fotogramétrico, somente uma
empresa pode fazê-lo e os vôos devem ser autorizados pelo Ministério da Defesa. Este
trabalho aborda os procedimentos burocráticos que estão sendo realizados pela Universidade
Federal de Santa Catarina (UFSC), a fim de estabelecer uma base legal para o ensino,
pesquisa e extensão em fotogrametria com drones.
