Abstract
The Internet of Things (IoT) is a fast-evolving cutting-edge ecosystem in which the central notion is the arrangement of a diverse number of smart things so that they may be handled from anywhere in the entire globe. Due to the efficient usage IoT based applications it has become more commercial, and different IoT concepts have been coupled with latest foremost technology i.e., aerial computing. Aerial computing is a viable paradigm that allows for local computation and real-time service provisioning while in the air. Technological innovations such as 4G/5G networks have significant potential for IoT services from higher heights employing UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) outfitted with cameras, sensors, and GPS receivers, resulting in an airborne zone of the IoT. UAV inclusion into the IoT ecosystem is one of the biggest communication technology advancements. In light of the aforementioned remarks, the study carried out in this paper represent the progressive era of aerial computing technology; that will aid researches to develop real-time scalable IoT- UAV based applications because these applications are anticipated to become a crucial part of our smart environment in the near future, dominating the common low-altitude airspace.
