Radiosondes are used for aerological observations in environmental impact assessment of thermal power plants and geothermal power plants, but the development of alternative methods is expected due to their high cost and environmental load. In this study, we conducted parallel observations of UAVs and radiosondes, and examined the applicability of UAVs to aerological observations above 1000 m. As a result, it was shown that the wind direction, wind speed, and temperature measured by the UAV are almost the same as the observational results of the radiosonde.
