UAS (drone) in Response to Coronavirus

Abstract: This paper presents the result of an investigation how Unmanned Aviation Systems were applied in the first half of 2020 in response to the coronavirus COVID-19 challenges. The application cases collected and referenced in this paper are pandemic specific only even though many of them may be considered as typical. An important discovery was that the majority of limitations preventing the high spread of UAS applications are not technological. Nevertheless, innovative technologies, application cases and services … Show more

“…Dr. Spot also has a tablet screen to perform telemedicine. Drones [47] , [66] , [67] have the advantage of not being restricted by the terrain, and can be equipped with different temperature sensing components, such as IR sensor, thermometer, thermal camera, etc. Thus, drones are effective in screening the temperature in public places.…”

“…Transport by drone is 8 to 12 times faster than ground vehicles and virtually noiseless [179] . As new lockdown periods took hold in the latter part of the pandemic, many countries turned to aerial delivery in order to keep people safe [66] , [180] . This pandemic may also lead top retailers like Amazon and Walmart to accelerate automation to lessen their dependence on human labor [181] .…”

“…There are studies [1] estimating that up to 400,000 drones will be providing services in the airspace by 2050, with a total market value of 10 billion euros per year by 2035. Last-mile delivery [2], surveillance [3], infrastructure inspection [4], traffic monitoring [5], media production [6], or managing health emergency situations [7] are just a few examples of the wide spectrum of drone applications. Indeed, the integration of UAS in the civil airspace is probably one of the most revolutionary events for Air Traffic Management (ATM) since the beginning of its implementation.…”
