Several models of UAVs have been developed for scientific missions such as aerial geomagnetic survey, meteorological observation, and ground observation instead of manned airplanes especially in Antarctica. The UAV fleet is divided into three groups, i.e., a small UAV for low altitude, relatively large UAVs for mid-altitude, and a small glider UAV for high altitude. Several results, operational experiences of the UAVs, lessons learned including the operations in Antarctica, and several problems to be solved are reported in this chapter.
