Challenges of Using Drones and Software Solutions for Smart Cities

The fast urbanization that we are witnessing today worldwide has led to the fact that more than half of the world's population lives in cities. Relying on broad and rapid technological progress, the concept of smart cities was developed. This concept brings together information and communication technology with various physical devices connected to the network to optimize the efficiency of city services. Smart cities require large amounts of collected data to plan new and improve existing infrastructure. The use of UAVs can improve the realization of this new concept of smart cities and creates the conditions for quick and efficient collection of large amounts of necessary data over a large area. With the obtained data, it is possible to create different basis for the development of a smart city. Today, there are numerous software solutions for processing data collected from UAV that contain automated algorithms and procedures for obtaining products that can be used for various analyses and purposes. In this paper, analyses, and comparison of the obtained products of UAV imaging in the municipality of Bedekovčina (Republic of Croatia) was carried out through three different software: SiteScan, Drone2Map and Context Capture Master. Based on the analysis and the obtained products ; assessment was made on the best software solution for specific needs, and capabilities for user of used software are presented.
