Reestablishing communication channels is one of the most important yet time-consuming procedures to carry out following a natural disaster. After Hurricane Katrina impacted Louisiana in 2005, more than 60% of networks were still down 3 weeks after the event.1 In 2017, when Hurricane María devastated Puerto Rico, 95% of cellular sites failed island-wide, leaving many civilians disconnected for months.2 One viable approach to this challenge is increasing the capabilities of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), commonly known as drones, which could provide sustained communication outlets in hard-to-access areas while emergency response efforts are underway.
