| Abstract | |
Drone technology has the potential to revolutionize various sectors, including healthcare, food, and everyday goods, enabling efficient and convenient deliveries. However, in an expected competitive airspace environment with multiple companies, it becomes crucial to establish organized and coordinated access for drones. The Internet of Drones (IoD) aims to ensure equitable airspace utilization. Despite significant advancements in drone delivery, it remains essential to understand the circumstances where drone delivery offers advantages in terms of why, where, and when it should be employed. This study introduces a comprehensive guideline for developing decision systems for drone delivery within the IoD. Specifically, we present a systematic approach to the drone delivery decision problem that tackles those questions (why, where, and when). To provide practical insights, we examine a real delivery scenario using actual data from motorcycle deliveries in Brazilian cities. Additionally, we propose an algorithm for distributing points to serve as depots or droneports. Lastly, we conduct a case study, implementing the proposed guideline and distribution algorithm. The results demonstrate a 49% reduction in delivery time compared to actual delivery durations. (AU) | |
