Abstract

UAV operations and their literature are developing rapidly. Along with the increasing number of risky situations, new technologies and measures are being developed to eliminate the unsafe situations created by them. Increasing UAVs have potential to lead to unsafe situations in airspace with incident and accident background. In addition to all other studies related to UAVs, studies on safety management systems, as well as other topics related to the safety management system, need to increase. In this study, a bibliometric analysis of the studies on UAVs between the years 2003-2022 was conducted from the perspective of safety management. For this purpose, the publications found in the Dimensions database were examined. Those publications related to UAVs were filtered according to certain criteria such as year, author, country, institution, and a sample was formed with 741 publications by using bibliometric analysis method. VOSViewer application was used for bibliometric analysis and the achieved data were visualized in the form of tables, graphics and visual maps. The findings show that the vast majority of publications on keywords were published in 2021. The most cited publication was written by Colomina and Molina in 2014. Most of the publications came up from the United States of America in total where 86 studies were conducted. The most cited organization is the University of Florida. In the cluster work, the words of remote sensing, sensor, and drones appear frequently.

İnsansız Hava Aracı Sistemlerinin Emniyet Yönetim Sistemlerine İlişkin Çalışmaların Bibliyometrik Analiz İle Değerlendirilmesi

Abstract

İHA operasyonları ve literatürü hızla gelişiyor. Riskli durumların artmasıyla birlikte, bunların yarattığı emniyetsiz durumları ortadan kaldırmak için yeni teknolojiler ve önlemler geliştirilmektedir. Artan UAV'ler hava sahasında emniyetsiz durumlara yol açmaktadır. UAV'lerle ilgili diğer tüm çalışmaların yanı sıra emniyet yönetim sistemi ile ilgili diğer konu başlıklarının yanı sıra emniyet yönetim sistemlerine ilişkin çalışmalarında artması gerekmektedir. Bu çalışmada 2003-2022 yılları arasında İHA'lar üzerinde yapılan çalışmaların emniyet yönetimi perspektifinden bibliyometrik analizi yapılmıştır. Bu amaçla Dimensions veri tabanında bulunan yayınlar incelenmiştir. İHA'larla ilgili yayınlar yıl, yazar, ülke, kurum gibi belirli kriterlere göre filtrelenmiş ve bibliyometrik analiz yöntemi kullanılarak 741 yayından oluşan bir örneklem oluşturulmuştur. Bibliyometrik analiz için VOSViewer programı kullanılmış ve elde edilen veriler tablo, grafik ve görsel haritalar halinde görselleştirilmiştir. Bulgular, anahtar kelimelerle ilgili yayınların büyük çoğunluğunun 2021 yılında yayınlandığını göstermektedir. En çok alıntı yapılan yayın ise 2014 yılında Colomina ve Molina tarafından yazılmıştır. Toplamda 86 çalışmanın yapıldığı yayınların çoğu Amerika Birleşik Devletleri'ndedir. En çok alıntı yapılan kuruluş Florida Üniversitesi'dir. Kümeleme çalışmalarında uzaktan algılama, sensör, drone kelimeleri sıklıkla karşılan çalışma alt başlıklarıdır.
