摘要：In the case of natural hazards the spatial extent of the disaster area is usually large. It is often difficult to conduct search and rescue operations from the ground. Such operations are often hindered due to the inaccessibility to the locality due to the damaged infrastructures. But it is often crucial that the victims are identified and rescued as soon as possible so that timely help can reach to them. Usually manned aircraft equipped for covering wide area with special sensors are used in such purposes. Since it is difficult to operate the manned aircraft from low altitude, a binocular telescope is usually employed to detect small targets from high altitude. In that case, the range of vision for searching becomes narrow and the possibility of oversight must increase. Since UAV can fly at a very low altitude, high-resolution images can be acquired which then can be used to detect the victims. In this research, a UAV based monitoring system and object detection technique is proposed in order to enhance the search and rescue operation in a disaster area. The main focus here is to develop a data processing system, which would provide a faster, logical and accurate means of handling and processing a large amount of data acquired by the UAV system. The data processing system, henceforth termed as Data Viewer, consists of several components in order to carry out different responsibilities e.g., flight design, extraction of useful data, data quality checking, data integration, image viewing, object detection etc
