About

Tomasz Nowobilski is a leading researcher at the intersection of construction safety and emerging technologies, with a primary focus on the operational integration of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in the built environment. His most cited work, "Unmanned aerial vehicles in the construction industry - Towards a protocol for safe preparation and flight of drones" (2022), has garnered 28 citations and establishes a critical framework for standardizing drone operations on construction sites. Nowobilski’s major contribution lies in translating the broad potential of UAVs—used for building inspections, damage assessment, land measurements, and safety monitoring—into a practical, risk-mitigated protocol. By addressing the gap between technological capability and on-site safety, his research provides actionable guidelines for flight preparation and execution, directly impacting industry practices. This work positions him as a key voice in the digital transformation of construction, where his findings help ensure that innovation does not come at the cost of worker safety. For students and researchers, Nowobilski’s output exemplifies how applied research can bridge engineering, technology, and occupational health, making his protocol a foundational reference for anyone exploring drone deployment in high-risk environments.
