Systems and methods for controlling a fleet of drones for data collection

A computer-implemented method for identifying property damage using a drone fleet, the method implemented by a system including (a) the drone fleet that includes a plurality of drones each including one or more sensors, and (b) a computing device that includes at least one processor and a memory communicatively coupled to the at least one processor, the method comprising:

• receiving, by the computing device, geolocation data associated with a first property from a first drone of the plurality of drones;
• transmitting, by the computing device, the geolocation data to a set of drones of the plurality of drones, prompting the set of drones to navigate to the first property based upon the geolocation data;
• collecting, using the one or more sensors, damage data associated with the first property;
• receiving, by the computing device, the drone-collected damage data associated with the first property from the set of drones;
• generating, by the computing device, aggregated damage data associated with the first property based at least partially upon the drone-collected damage data;
• and
• notifying, by the computing device, an external device that the first property is damaged based upon the aggregated damage data.

At least one non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon, wherein when executed by at least one processor communicatively coupled to a drone fleet including a plurality of drones each including one or more sensors, the computer-executable instructions cause the at least one processor to:

• receive geolocation data associated with a first property from a first drone of the plurality of drones;
• transmit the geolocation data to a set of drones of the plurality of drones, prompting the set of drones to navigate to the first property based upon the geolocation data;
• instruct the drone fleet to collect, using the one or more sensors, damage data associated with the first property;
• receive the drone-collected damage data associated with the first property from the set of drones;
• generate aggregated damage data associated with the first property based at least partially upon the drone-collected damage data;
• and
• notify an external device that the first property is damaged based upon the aggregated damage data.
