        abstract = {Technology development in the design of UAVs opens their exploitation in both military and civilian purpose. For all these applications, cameras in UAV plays very important role.  The objective of this project is to develop a user interface that processes video data in real-time from UAV. The interface will contain buttons, commands, menus etc. for single Target tracking and Geolocalization of object/s. A Graphical User Interface (GUI) has been designed and developed in C# environment, which has the ability to receive navigation and attitude data through MAVLINK protocol as well as to receive the video through video receiver.A GUI for Tracking and Geolocalization is designed and developed base on Kernel-based tracking algorithm (mean-shift tracking) which is an iterative localization procedure based on maximization of a similarity measure.  Geolocalization is the process of adding geographical identification metadata. Universal Transverse Mercator Coordinate system is used to determine the Latitude and Longitude of the target. Geo-location is assigned to the static and moving object.},
