Police & Law Enforcement Drones

Drones can serve as an extension of your force’s eyes and ears by providing onsite situational awareness and advanced recon. Drones can be used to quickly, and safely, scout dangerous areas while keeping law enforcement personnel safe. A drone may spot if a weapon has been drawn when searching for a suspect. Drones can also provide target acquisition assistance by using a thermal camera.

In addition to overwatch, drones offer a faster overview of an incident. A live feed of a scene can be shared among officers onsite and the incident commander for seamless communication. Drones can be used to enter a building and quickly, and safely, to aid in search and apprehension of a suspect. Facial recognition software can be used to quickly and efficiently scan a crowd, speeding up suspect search and arrest as well as monitoring a potential riot or looting situation.

Drones can now play a key role in a search and rescue environment by gathering information and sending live feeds to the command post. Rather than risking search personnel, dangerous areas can be thoroughly searched with use of a drone. Drone equipped with a thermal camera can assist with locating missing persons by sensing their heat signature.

A drone can quickly produce an overhead view of a crash scene. Using 3D mapping software a 3D rendering of the crash scene can quickly be produced, reducing the number of hours taking ground photos and measurements.

Drones can be used as an extension of a crime scene investigator's eyes. The drone can provide an aerial view of the scene, which may provide additional details that could have been overlooked or non-apparent to law enforcement on the ground.
