Digitalization of UAV transport and technological cycles in smart agriculture
Abstract
The transport and technological cycles of unmanned aerial vehicles used in various options for the implementation of agricultural technologies in smart farming are discussed. The analysis of UAV function was carried out, starting with regular and detailed aerial photography and ending with the spraying of chemicals and spraying fields. It is shown that the digitalization of UAV transport and technological cycles based on GERT-network models makes it possible to provide effective information and analytical support for decision-making processes in logistics monitoring and flow control systems in agricultural production. An analysis of the fundamental principles of GERT-network modeling led to the conclusion that this method is applicable for solving a number of systemic problems in optimizing UAV transport and technological cycles in precision farming, including their planning, modeling and development, as well as quality control of their implementation.
