The paper delves into the relevant concern of light pollution in urbanized regions, focusing on a case study conducted in Warsaw. Light pollution from excessive artificial lighting poses serious challenges to ecosystems and human health. The study employs drone technology to measure light intensity and capture nighttime photographs, enabling a detailed assessment of the extent and impact of light pollution in Warsaw. The research reveals the diverse manifestations of light pollution, ranging from disruptions in circadian rhythms to adverse effects on wildlife behaviour. By offering valuable insights into the multifaceted impacts of light pollution, the study advocates for informed decision-making and targeted interventions to foster sustainable and healthier urban environments. The findings underscore the importance of implementing better lighting policies to mitigate light pollution's adverse effects on human well-being and the environment. The research employed drone flyovers and lux-meter measurements to capture nighttime photographs and assess light intensity. Additionally, the study utilized the Sky Quality Meter to evaluate light pollution's impact on the night sky quality, offering valuable insights for urban planning and environmental conservation. Hence, the research enhances understanding of urban planning, public health, and environmental conservation, emphasizing the need for sustainable urban development practices to effectively address the challenges of light pollution.
