Delivery of goods by air using unmanned aerial vehicles is one of the many potential applica- tions of unmanned aerial vehicles.
The problem in the operationalization of this type of use of unmanned aircraft is, on the one hand, the limitation in the legal regulations and, on the other hand, the lack of a unified system of control, man- agement and servicing of unmanned aircraft.
The paper describes a model of a unique, integrated system of control, management and servicing of unmanned aircraft that can be logistically supported by an extensive network of small airports in the Republic of Serbia.
The economic profitability of this way of delivering goods is correlated with the real needs of the market with the efficiency and effectiveness of delivery on the principle of “today for today”.
The availability of real-time data on the state of railway facilities and the state-of-the art technologies for data collection and analysis allow transition to the fourth generation maintenance. It is based on the prediction of the facility functional safety and dependability and the risk-oriented facility management. The article describes an approach to assessing the risks of hazardous facility failures using the latest digital data processing methods. The implementation of this approach will help set maintenance objectives and contribute to the efficient use of resources and the reduction of railway facility managers’ expenditures.
