Internet of Drone Things

As UAV technology is rapidly evolving, a pervasive need for a thorough investigation of its full capabilities has come to the forefront. Internet of Drone Things: Architectures, Approaches, and Applications fulfils this need enabling its readers to easily find the answers they are seeking by providing a comprehensive overview of the topic.
This book, in fact, includes fundamental information related to IoDT architecture design and features; reviews the state of the art in hardware and software platforms to deploy, connect, and control drones or swarms of drones; and covers the latest developments in innovative drone-facilitated applications and services that can significantly improve efficiency, productivity, and sustainability of various operations in modern society and a growing number of its industries. Finally, experimental modeling and simulations are accompanied by prototyping examples, which are set to become the benchmark of next-level automation in the field.
Internet of Drone Things: Architectures, Approaches, and Applications is, therefore, an invaluable resource for engineering students, researchers, and professionals, as well as sector experts who work to develop new drone standards or to identify new drone technology use and commercialization areas at an international level.
