Drone Emergency Response Services

Floods can quickly cause massive damage, but a drone operator can help estimate the extent and impact of the flood right away. By capturing real-time, high-resolution images of the flood zone, drones can capture massive amounts of data in a matter of minutes. This helps others understand the damage and mitigate it more effectively.

When human rescue teams can’t find or reach stranded, lost, or injured people, a drone often can. Drone service providers can help with search and rescue operations by flying their devices to areas that are difficult to examine on foot. Additionally, drones can help communicate messages to the lost individuals, and sometimes even deliver necessary supplies.

Speaking of supplies, advanced UAVs are increasingly used to deliver things like food, water, medical gear, communication devices, and even WiFi hotspots to people in need. When a helicopter crew or on-foot team can’t send supplies quickly, a drone operator can.

Before a crew heads into a disaster site to provide medical aid or clean up, they need to know how dangerous the location is. Drones can conduct safety assessments from an aerial vantage point, then bring the data back for evaluation. This helps prevent the jeopardization of further human life during disaster recovery efforts.
