Environmental control and pollution measurement play a more and more important role in the protection of the delicate equilibrium between healthy life, social and economic growth, comfort and profit, and the desire to guarantee all the former for the future. In case of accessibility, it is already routine to use stationary measurement systems for long term investigations or portable equipment for special checks in emergency cases. However, accessibility is not provided in all situations. This paper discusses the applicability of a versatile, flying rotor platform for measurement or observation purposes in inaccessible locations. Different applications and their boundary conditions will be demonstrated and results of test measurements using a prototype of the platform will be presented. Finally, an outline of an optimized rotor platform will be developed. For that layout, different boundaries like weather conditions, training standard of the pilot, duration of the measuring task, and aviation regulations have to be accounted for. The design will also be influenced by requirements of architectural applications like airborne observation and measurement tasks in building control without the need of scaffoldings.
