Today’s question is about police drones. Which are some of the best drones for law enforcement? And, what are some of the most important things that the department should consider when setting up a new drone program?
Our caller for today, Officer Abrennaman is calling from Montgomery County, Ohio. His police department has recently kickstarted a drone program, and Alex is wondering if they have purchased the right drones for their program and if they are moving in the right direction.
In today’s show, we first discuss the different ways of using police drones. On a broad level, you will learn the three different deliverables, and how each drone deliverable has multiple uses. From event management to search and rescue to streaming live feeds, we reveal how law enforcement can leverage drone technology to execute tasks with greater efficiency while reducing risks and costs.
Other topics discussed in today’s show include the best and most efficient police drones, how the changing regulations impact public safety agencies, and some more tips for creating a successful enterprise-level drone program.
