The logistics sector was quite late in adopting new-age technology. I believe drones will become an integral part of the logistics industry in the years to come. Although, still in its nascent state in India, tests have been successfully conducted by international e-commerce companies and drone-based deliveries are likely to become the norm in the future. Logistics sector is ready for drone technology but it would totally depend on the other aspects such as impact on the aviation sector, safety and security angle, government rules and regulations. The advantages would be automation, remote location access, speed, and accuracy of deliveries. While the drawbacks will be safety and security management and costs. Sheer drone traffic management and the impact that it would have on air traffic and other collateral damages is a major drawback and one of the reasons why active adoption of drone technology is taking time.
