Search and Rescue
Swiftly aid search and rescue missions by covering extensive and difficult-to-navigate landscapes, utilizing aerial thermal imaging to pinpoint the whereabouts of lost individuals.
Painpoints
- Rescue missions often occur on vast and challenging terrains, which can limit ground search capabilities.
- Lack of accurate coordinates and visual references can negatively impact response missions.
- Certain terrains and conditions pose challenges to easily identifying a missing person through visual ground searches.
Advantages
- Cover large areas more efficiently with drone-based search missions.
- Provide accurate coordinates and visual references to ground teams for more efficient rescue missions.
- Overcome terrain and visibility challenges with aerial searches that detect heat patterns.

Workflow
Mission Execution:
- Fly manually over the last known location following a search pattern such as the spiral route.
- Draw points, lines, or polygons on a map on DJI FlightHub 2 to mirror the last known location, trails, or key areas of interest.
- Select a suitable infrared palette and gain mode for the conditions at hand. White Hot and Black Hot palettes are preferred.
- Switch between infrared and visual cameras. Use the Link Zoom feature to zoom in simultaneously with thermal and visual sensors.
- As the situation allows, generate a rapid 2D map on DJI FlightHub 2 to provide a better understanding of search area and routes.
- Once the subject is identified, mark the location with the drone flying over.
- Communicate with the rescuee and rescue teams using the speaker if applicable.
- Support team on the rescue mission providing lighting from the drone using the spotlight.
