Synopsis

Explore the future of logistics and disaster management with this essential guide to the design, applications, and challenges of integrating advanced drone technology into intelligent transportation systems.

Drones are quickly becoming an essential technology for navigating inaccessible areas, especially during emergency situations. However, the implementation of these drones requires strict standards, policies, and procedures. Currently, drones are being used in several industrial and service sectors, extending the possibilities of handling transportation and logistics. The future of transportation is based on unmanned vehicles, and it is important to identify their challenges and futuristic applications.

Drones for Transportation Logistics and Disaster Management introduces the essential aspects of the technological advancement of drones, the challenges faced in current practices, and their advanced applications. The book describes future intelligent and resilient transportation systems backed by the Internet of Vehicle Things, the problems of big data analytics, and optimization techniques for in-house supply-chain management. Using a global multi-sector perspective, this volume will comprehensively cover essential components of drone systems, including their modeling, design, and maintenance, making it an essential guide for anyone looking to the future of disaster management.
