The application of freight drones in the city logistics system of concentrated urban demand point clusters
Abstract
One of the fundamental questions for transport management in the near future is how to integrate unmanned aerial vehicles into the existing transport ecosystem efficiently, but above all as safely as possible. With the rapid development of the drone industry, the possibility arose, obviously, that these devices could also be used in urban freight transport. Trial operations are being conducted in many countries around the world to test the usability of unmanned aerial vehicles in transportation, and in a number of countries, drones are already a stable part of city logistics systems.
