Abstract Explore the intersection between unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and the evolving landscape of smart cities. With the increasing integration of technology into urban environments, there is a growing need to understand how UAV swarms can contribute to the safety, efficiency, and resilience of these complex urban ecosystems. The book aims to provide a technical understanding of UAV swarms and their applications within the context of smart cities. It begins by laying the groundwork with an introduction to UAV swarms and smart cities, establishing the foundational concepts and motivations behind their integration. As the book progresses, it delves into various aspects of smart cities, exploring concepts, technologies, and challenges inherent in their development and operation. This includes discussions on cloud computing, cybersecurity, machine learning applications, surveillance and monitoring systems, urban planning, and infrastructure management. It also examines the integration of IoT devices with UAV swarms, highlighting the synergies between these emerging technologies and their potential impact on urban environments. The book examines cutting-edge topics such as edge computing, blockchain applications, 5G integration, and augmented reality/virtual reality (AR/VR) visualization techniques in the context of UAV swarm operations. It concludes with reflections on innovations and future directions, offering insights into the evolving landscape of UAV swarm technologies and their implications for the protection and advancement of smart cities. The book serves as a comprehensive guide for researchers, practitioners, and policymakers interested in understanding the technical, social, and economic dimensions of UAV swarm technology within the context of smart city development and management. What You Will Learn Identify practical applications of UAV swarms in surveillance monitoring, urban planning, disaster management, and infrastructure resilience Gain comprehensive understanding of UAV swarms by exploring diverse disciplines Apply insights from emerging technologies like cloud computing, machine learning, blockchain, IoT devices, and so on to UAV swarm technology Who Is This Book For This book appeals to a wide range of readers with different interests and backgrounds, including researchers, policymakers, industry stakeholders, practitioners, experts, and general fans who are curious in the confluence of smart cities with UAV swarm technologies with little to no experience or knowledge of UAV swarms. © 2025 by The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to APress Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.
