This paper reviews the applications of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) in landslide studies, focusing on their use in static geological characterization, dynamic monitoring, and emergency response. UAVs have become essential tools for on-site investigations, offering high-resolution imagery and detailed 3D models. The paper discusses various types of UAVs and sensors, including RGB cameras, multi-spectral cameras, thermal IR cameras, SAR, and LiDAR, detailing their roles and data processing methods. UAVs are particularly useful for landslide mapping, modeling, and characterization, providing rapid and cost-effective solutions compared to traditional methods. They are also effective in monitoring temporal and spatial dynamics, such as surface changes, crack detection, and post-event assessments. In emergency response, UAVs facilitate real-time monitoring, damage assessment, and timely decision-making. The paper highlights the challenges and opportunities in UAV technology, emphasizing the need for advancements in regulatory compliance, flight time, 3D reconstruction accuracy, and integration with other technologies like UAV swarms. Overall, UAVs have significantly enhanced the field of landslide research and management, offering valuable insights into landslide behavior and contributing to safer communities.This paper reviews the applications of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) in landslide studies, focusing on their use in static geological characterization, dynamic monitoring, and emergency response.
