Here are the basics on a drone webinar happening tomorrow, Aug. 6:
Emergency Planning & Disaster Response with UAVs
Key topics include:
1) Preparedness - using unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) for condition assessment, foliage overgrowth, etc.
2) Response - using UAS to assess damage, power restoration, and tell the story of "how bad is 'bad'"?
3) Recovery and Resilience - UAS for long-term recovery and rebuilding, infrastructure hardening.
You will hear and interact directly with SMEs such as:
• Public safety officers
• Emergency response managers
• Disaster response teams
• Energy/industrial asset owners
