Effects of a hovering unmanned aerial vehicle on urban soundscapes perception [PDF]
Transportation Research Part D: Transport and Environment, 2020 Several industry leaders and governmental agencies are currently investigating the use of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), or drones as commonly known, for an ever-growing number of applications from blue light services to parcel delivery. For the specific case of the delivery sector, drones can alleviate road space usage and also lead to reductions in
