Abstract 
This work presents the development of a drone equipped with a chamber with sensors for measuring data of interest to the greenhouse effect, and with the capacity to process data through an onboard computer, and transmit this data to the Digital Amazon repository in the cloud. The drone developed has internet connectivity via Wi-Fi or 4G modem, to allow data transmission as soon as it is collected. Successful experiments were carried out in the University of São Paulo, campus of São Carlos to test the effectiveness of real-time data collection and transmission to the Digital Amazon, with a flight trajectory at multiple height levels, the maximum height of which was 120 meters. Results are shown for the profiles of CO2 concentration, temperature, relative humidity and atmospheric pressure along the height.
