At least 750 people around the world have been rescued as a direct result of drone technology, according to official stats from DJI.
Drones are vital for search and rescue operations for the following reasons:
Infrared and zoom cameras help find missing and lost persons. They can detect the heat of the human body. This function greatly improves the ability to find people or objects during the day or night, when these people or objects are otherwise not visible.
Efficient large area coverage
Easily reach difficult-to-access areas and scale tricky terrain
Quick and cost-effective to deploy
Can fly low to the ground
Integrate loudspeakers and spotlights for enhanced mission versatility
Drone data can be used to build 2D maps and 3D models for vital situational awareness
Wildfire Support
Infrared drones can be extremely beneficial for firefighters. Having eyes above the scene and being able to fly the drone to where the hotspots are allows crews to fight the fire more efficiently. With greater information from the air incident command can better direct the crew members on the scene to put out the fire.
