Abstract

A computer-implemented method for managing drones is provided. A processor set selects a drone for completing a transportation task. The processor set receives an origin and a destination for the drone. The drone is designed to receive a number of cargos at the origin and deliver the number of cargos to the destination for completing the transportation task. The processor set determines a number of routes for the drone based on flight condition between the origin and the destination. The processor set selects a route from the number of routes for the drone based on costs associated with the number of routes. The processor set navigates the drone to complete pickup and delivery for the number of cargos according to the selected route in real-time.
