A Study on the Integrated Application and Development Strategies of Low-Altitude Drones in the Field of Smart Transport and Logistics

Abstract

Against the backdrop of the implementation of low-altitude airspace reforms and the comprehensive upgrading of smart logistics systems, low-altitude UAVs, with their advantages of manoeuvrability, minimal spatial constraints and rapid response times, are gradually being integrated into multiple sectors including urban delivery, traffic inspection, emergency supply support and urban-rural logistics, becoming a key enabler in the construction of an integrated air-ground smart transport and logistics system.Based on the economic environment of the low-altitude sector, this paper systematically analyses the current status of low-altitude UAVs’ practical applications in the field of smart transport and logistics. It objectively identifies the practical shortcomings in the industry’s development process and, by combining policy directions with industry realities, proposes optimisation strategies that are both feasible and implementable. The aim is to provide theoretical references and practical insights for the standardised development of UAV logistics and the enhancement of quality and efficiency in the smart transport industry.
