The monitoring system of road infrastructures is an important component of the conception, named 'Smart City'. Its mobile realization equips the majority of participants with GPS-trackers, which are often unattainable. The deployment and maintenance of a fixed traffic monitoring system is associated with great financial costs. Multicopters allow traffic monitoring on large areas in real-time processing. The great variety of military tasks that are solved using multicopters proves its efficient use. Nowadays, despite the obvious advantages, it is difficult to find the successful application of multicopters in urban areas. One reason for this is the positioning problem in conditions of dense urban area development. In this paper, in the absence of a GPS-signal, the question of multicopter positioning, at the expense of standard equipment, is considered.
