The Role of Drones in Disaster Response A Literature Review of Operations Research Applications

Yucesoy, E., Balcik, B., and Coban, E. (2024). The Role of Drones in Disaster Response: A Literature Review of Operations Research Applications. International Transaction in Operational Research. 32(2):545-589.
Drones may be useful for disaster response, especially for information collection, delivery of relief supplies, and repair of communication networks. The authors summarize the existing literature for practitioners who want to use drones for humanitarian disaster response or decision making and note areas that would benefit from more research (e.g., system integration, technical factors, drone-specific characteristics).
