A Biblyometric Analysis of Empirical Studies on Drone Delivery

Abstract

Product delivery by drone has become a topic of increasing interest in the academic community. The aim of this study is to provide information about the authors who conducted the studies, the countries where the studies were conducted, the years of the studies, the methodology of the studies, the theoretical background of the studies, and the variables used in the studies by making a bibliometric analysis of 30 studies, which were selected based on certain criteria, including the subject of product delivery by drone. For this purpose, a bibliometric analysis of 30 selected studies was carried out using VOSviewer software. According to the results obtained, Jinsoo Hwang is the one who has done the most work on product delivery by drone. Most studies were conducted in South Korea. Looking at the years in which the studies were carried out, it was seen that the subject of delivery by drone was studied more and more each year. Accordingly, interest in drone delivery is increasing day by day. The questionnaire method was used in all of the studies. The most technology acceptance model was used in the studies. The most used variables are intention, attitude, risk, and innovativeness, respectively. It is expected that these results will provide researchers with foresight.
