Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) popularity is increased in recent years, and the domain of application of this new technology is continuously expanding. However, although UAVs may be extremely useful in monitoring contexts, the operational aspects of drone patrolling services have not yet been extensively studied. Specifically, patrolling and inspecting with UAVs different targets distributed over a large area is still an open problem, due to battery constraints and other practical limitations. In this work, we propose a deterministic algorithm for patrolling large areas in a pre- or post-critical event scenario. The autonomy range of UAVs is extended with the concept of Social Drone Sharing: citizens may offer their availability to take care of the UAV if it lands in their private area, being thus strictly involved in the monitoring process. The proposed approach aims at finding optimal routes in this context, minimizing the patrolling time and respecting the battery constraints. Simulation experiments have been conducted, giving some insights about the performance of the proposed method. |
