Methods, systems, and apparatus for drone-assisted sensor mapping are disclosed. A method includes detecting a sensor in a detection area of a drone; based on detecting the sensor in the detection area of the drone, detecting the drone in sensor data captured by the sensor; determining a detection area of the sensor based on movement of the drone after the drone is detected; and determining a destination for the drone based on the detection area of the sensor. The method may include mapping boundaries of the detection area of the sensor to a map of an area where the sensor is located. The sensor can be a passive infrared sensor, an active infrared sensor, a radar sensor, a sonar sensor, a time of flight sensor, a structured light sensor, or a lidar sensor.
