Radiation monitoring using unmanned aircraft detection systems can reduce the impact of radioactive element activity and contamination. The design of an early warning system using unmanned aircraft and real-time and visual monitoring is a crucial step towards achieving national security by providing an early warning of the dangers of radioactivity that cannot be measured in the environment and can be a health threat. Unmanned aircraft are equipped with detectors and other supporting devices to obtain data: date, time, coordinates, altitude, radiation value, temperature, humidity, battery status, and pressure. The data is managed in the phpMyAdmin database by adjusting the table structure. The receiving device is equipped with the MIT App Inventor application, which was previously designed. The MIT App Inventor display design was prepared by inserting a user interface with labels, text boxes, layout settings, and connectivity to the IP server. Meanwhile, the programming is saved in the installed XAMPP folder. The information data is then processed to obtain radiation level monitoring results in visual form and integrated with databases and servers. The results of developing this technology not only facilitate data analysis in knowing the location and level of radiation when monitoring the environment or solving problems in affected areas but also pave the way for further advancements in radiation monitoring systems.
