Collaborative Hybrid Aerial and Ground Vehicle Routing for Post-Disaster Assessment

Hybrid aerial and ground vehicles are seen as a promising option for deployment in a post-disaster assessment due to the risk of infrastructure damage that may hinder the assessment operation. The efficient operation of the hybrid aerial and ground vehicle, particularly routings, remains a challenge...

The present study proposed a collaborative hybrid aerial and ground vehicle to support the operation of post-disaster assessment.
