2025
Abhijeet Kumar | Victor Prybutok | Vikas Kumar Reddy Sangana
This study presents a structured review of 59 academic articles, identified through an extensive literature survey, focused on the environmental implications of drone-based delivery systems within the broader fields of transportation, logistics, and sustainability. The reviewed journals cover a multidisciplinary range of topics, reflecting the intersection of drone technology with environmental science, logistics management, and operational research. Key journals, such as Transportation Research Part C: Emerging Technologies, Computers and Industrial Engineering, and Applied Mathematical Modelling, offer critical insights into how drone technology can reshape logistics systems, reduce environmental impacts, and contribute to intelligent transportation solutions. In addition, niche publications in areas like artificial intelligence, disaster risk reduction, and sustainable transportation further enhance the breadth of this review. By identifying and categorizing these publications, this review provides a valuable resource for researchers and practitioners aiming to explore the environmental and operational challenges of drone-based delivery systems, while also offering a foundation for future research on their sustainability and integration into existing logistics frameworks.
