With the development of database management systems and the advent of android application to ease the burden of data storage and
retrieval (management), collection and processing of data on devices and artifacts that seemed extremely difficult is presently made quite easy.
In this paper, the concept of database management is introduced and a mobile application is designed and hosted online. Management software
of database server is established to realize instruction-level management and scheduling of databases. A Web-based management application
interface (android APP) is set up to meet user needs, thus to retrieve a variety of repositories. Thereby, meets the needs of stakeholders,
researchers and all sectors of society for statistical query of UAV data.

The problem of indiscriminate use of UAVs which has been
a cancer in many countries as perpetrators use them
dubiously has been investigated and a possible antidote of
such a menace suggested. By the use of a management
system that take into cognizance collection and storage of
information on all UAVs in the area taking into
consideration, the purpose, location and the specific details of
each device. Adopting a mobile application system, an APP
is developed with an underlying database to host the
information. The app is hosted online to be accessed
ubiquitously by all stakeholders. After building the app and
hosting online, it is tested using different test values to prove
if the app can really be used to manage the information as
required. In larger perspective, the piece of work could be
adopted in different fields. It has the ability to be accessed
universally and hence useful for top managers and decision
makers since they can still work remotely. The challenge
associated with this software is that it cannot track the
activities of the UAV when it takes off because it is not
connected to the UAV's sensor. It is therefore the foresight of
the researcher to include into the project a sensor detection
component that will be able to read and record the state (GPS
and other flight information) of the UAV when it is in the
flight mode, thus, in the future works.
