The Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) market once belonged to professional companies only. Now many amateur pilots fly cheap, smartphone controlled models available in any electronic store. Due to altitude, speed, and weight, these flying objects can cause damage and injury. Hence, a way to manage them is necessary. This paper presents a UAS Traffic Management (UTM) system comprising three components: a UAS electronic identification plate with an embedded logger, a ground identification equipment, and a Traffic Routing System (TRS). This UTM system uses the air parcel model, which divides the low altitude airspace in a 3-D air parcel map. In this system, land parcel owners possess the airspace above their real estate and approve or disallow overflights. The adoption of the described UTM allows cities to control UASs, to detect non-compliant flights, and to identify pilots.

This paper presents a innovative system for weather monitoring using one device called WeBo, equipped with weather sensors and GPS, placed on buses ceiling to measure weather variables like humidity, temperature and air quality during the bus path. The weather variables are stored together with the latitude and longitude of the measure place and the exact time ofmeasurement.WeBo synchronize its data with all other WeBos met during the path due a Bluetooth radio. This same radio is used to upload the data when the bus arrives in the terminal to a server called TeCo. The data downloaded by TeCo is transmitted to a main server and processed by a system called SysCo.With the information captured by the buses during the day, SysCo can generate reports ofpoints in the city where the temperature is above the normal, andplaces where the air quality is inappropriate.
