Technological advances in the implementation of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have drawn undue attention to various areas. Unmanned aerial vehicles, which can also be referred to as drones or autonomous vehicles, are devices that can be remotely controlled to fly. These UAVs have been rapidly integrated into meteorology and atmospheric science, specifically for capturing data in the atmosphere’s lowest layer and the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) because of their flexibility, mobility, effortless deployment, adjustability, and effective appraisal of real-world functions anytime and anywhere. The traditional means of capturing data such as satellites, balloons, and ground-based weather towers could not provide enough coverage. This paper has examined detailed UAV articles and journals to identify the different strategies and architectures used by researchers to obtain critical data in vertical atmospheric profiling.
