In the last decade, unmanned aerial vehicles have been widely used in various civil and military field operations. Most modern drones are manually controlled by an operator and require decision making, which requires experience gained through training, which is time consuming and expensive, and even with experienced operators, the human factor can never be excluded. In this paper, an algorithm for an automatic flight mode of unmanned aerial vehicles without an operator’s participation has been developed. The proposed algorithm has been considered in the military reconnaissance of railways using edge computing and computer vision approaches to recognise railroads and moving trains for simulated and real cases as well as send report data to the web platform. As a result, the head of the operation received information about the number of carriages and Global Positioning System coordinates of the recognised train to make the necessary decisions.
