An Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) includes flight components attached or disposed to a base; one or more cameras; radar; one or more wireless interfaces; a processing device communicatively coupled to the flight components, the one or more cameras, the radar, and the wireless interfaces; and memory storing instructions that, when executed, cause the processing device to monitor proximate airspace with one or more of the one or more cameras and the radar; detect an obstruction based on the monitor; identify characteristics of the obstruction; alter a flight plan, through the flight components, if required based on the characteristics; and communicate the obstruction to an air traffic control system via the one or more wireless interfaces.
