Extensive monitoring plays a key role in environmental protection. This task, however, has many issues to solve, communication and data collection being a difficult one. This paper focuses on the challenges of observing hard-to-access areas, such as forests and wetlands. The performance of the possible solutions for this problem are compared, focusing to sensor networking and Low-Power Wide-Area Network (LPWAN) technologies, and a drone-based solution will be proposed. The presented method offers a robust, and reliable, yet simple data collection solution. The hardware and software architecture, the communication protocol will be described, and the estimated performance of the system is analysed.
