EENA 2017 - EENA & DJI: Drone project results
1 like637 views
This document summarizes a pilot project between EENA and DJI to evaluate the use of drones in emergency response scenarios. The project involved partnerships with four pilot sites - two search and rescue teams and two fire and rescue services. Over 40 drone applications were tested from May to October 2016. The project found drones can assist first responders in scenarios like urban, rural, mountain, and over-water environments. It produced a white paper on best practices and recommendations for drone use by emergency services, and two new software solutions for first responders. Key recommendations included procedures for multi-drone and multi-operator operations, drone identification markers, and extensive training.
