With the continuous development of Chinese economy, the task of nuclear and radiation safety monitoring becomes increasingly heavy. The traditional artificial radiation monitoring has some shortcomings, such as high manpower consumption, high risk, low efficiency and blind areas. Domestic nuclear and radiation monitoring system products are few, mainly carried on the manned carrier or helicopter. Not only is the cost high, but also it is not conducive to promotion, and the system is not suitable for the weight requirements of unmanned carriers, affecting its application in radioactivity monitoring.

UAV has relatively high mobility performance in nuclear and radiation safety monitoring. In nuclear and radiation emergency rescue, it can carry nuclear and radiation monitoring equipment to quickly monitor the accident site. In particular, it can play a better monitoring role in rescue of strong radiation accidents and solve the problem that rescue personnel cannot reach the site for radiation information measurement and other applications. Strengthening the construction of UAV in nuclear emergency rescue team can effectively improve the level of nuclear emergency rescue.
