1. An unmanned aerial vehicle (“
- UAV”
) comprising;
an image capturing device associated with the UAV and configured to capture image data;
memory that stores computer-executable instructions; and
at least one processor configured to access the memory and execute the computer-executable instructions to at least;
execute a management system in communication at least with the image capturing device, the management system comprising;
an image recognition module for identifying properties included in the image data and maintaining a policy associated with the identified properties, the policy indicating a trigger for capturing the image data with the image capturing device;
receive instructions to deliver an item;
instruct the image capturing device to capture the image data while delivering the item and after delivering the item based at least in part on the policy and a location of the UAV upon returning to a source location and a geo-fence associated with a user location corresponding to delivery of the item; and
provide the captured image data to a computer system.

Abstract
Techniques are provided for analyzing data obtained while delivering items with unmanned aerial vehicles. For example, instructions may be provided to an unmanned aerial vehicle to deliver an item. The unmanned aerial vehicle may be configured to record data while delivering the item. In embodiments, the captured data may be received by a computer system and properties about a destination for the delivery may be identified by analyzing the data. A recommendation may be generated based at least in part on the identified properties.
