Advancements in Machine Learning and AI for Intelligent Systems in Drone Applications for Smart City Developments
Sampath Boopathi
Abstract
The chapter explores the integration of drones, machine learning, and artificial intelligence (AI) in smart city development. Drones can revolutionize urban planning, energy efficiency, noise reduction, environmental monitoring, traffic management, infrastructure inspection, public safety, data security, and privacy protection. AI-driven solutions enable data-driven decision-making for resource allocation, sustainability, and predictive modeling. AI optimizes flight paths for energy efficiency, noise reduction strategies enhance drone social acceptance, and autonomous drone navigation is crucial for safe urban deployment. Drones optimize traffic flow, reduce congestion, and enhance safety. AI provides predictive insights into traffic patterns, and drones aid in law enforcement, emergency response, and first responder support. Data security and privacy protection measures are essential for maintaining public trust.
