| Summary: | The paper discusses the problem of detecting emission sources in a low buildings area using unmanned aerial vehicles. The problem was analyzed, and methods of solving it were presented. Various data acquisition scenarios and their impact on the feasibility of the task were analyzed. A method for detecting smoke objects over buildings using stationary video sequences acquired with a drone in hover with the camera in the nadir position is proposed. The method uses differential frame information from stabilized video sequences and the YOLOv7 classifier. A convolutional network classifier was used to detect the roofs of buildings, using a custom training set adapted to the type of data used. Such a solution, although quite effective, is not very practical for the end user, but it enables the automatic generation of a comprehensive training set for classifiers based on deep neural networks. The effectiveness of such a solution was tested for the latest version of the YOLOv7 classifier. The tests proved the effectiveness of the described method, both for single images and video sequences. In addition, the obtained classifier correctly recognizes objects for sequences that do not meet some of the initial assumptions, such as the angle of the camera capturing the image.
