Introduction

The book "Artificial General Intelligence Based Drones for Climate Change" is a comprehensive exploration of how advanced technologies, particularly Artificial General Intelligence (AGI), can be leveraged to address the challenges posed by climate change. Through its meticulously structured chapters, the book delves into various facets of utilizing AGI-enabled drones to monitor, mitigate, and adapt to the impacts of climate change. In the introductory chapters, the book sets the stage by elucidating the fundamental concepts of AGI and its integration into drone systems. It outlines the potential of AGI to enhance the capabilities of drones in climate-related tasks such as monitoring environmental parameters, predicting weather patterns, and assessing biodiversity. As the narrative progresses, the book delves into the intricacies of climate change itself, examining its causes, effects, and broader implications. It highlights the urgent need for innovative solutions to combat climate change and underscores the pivotal role that drones equipped with AGI can play in this endeavor. Subsequent chapters provide a detailed overview of drone technology evolution, advancements in sensor technologies, and the integration of AGI for weather forecasting, biodiversity monitoring, and climate modeling. Through case studies and practical examples, the book illustrates how AGI-driven drones can revolutionize various aspects of climate change mitigation and adaptation strategies.

Objective

The book addresses the challenges and opportunities inherent in deploying AGI-enabled drones for climate-related missions.
