Abstract

We propose a 3D simulator tailored for the Drone-as-a-Service framework. The simulator enables employing dynamic algorithms for addressing realistic delivery scenarios. We present the simulator’s architectural design and its use of an energy consumption model for drone deliveries. We introduce two primary operational modes within the simulator: the edit mode and the runtime mode. Beyond its simulation capabilities, our simulator serves as a valuable data collection resource, facilitating the creation of datasets through simulated scenarios. Our simulator empowers researchers by providing an intuitive platform to visualize and interact with delivery environments. Moreover, it enables rigorous algorithm testing in a safe simulation setting, thus obviating the need for real-world drone deployments. Demo: https://​youtu.​be/​HOLfo1JiFJ0.
