FIREFIGHTING DRONE INFOGRAPHIC

Learn about firefighting UAV trends.

With the quick deployment of a drone, fire crews can quickly understand the situation at hand with an aerial view. Infrared (thermal) cameras are especially helpful when fighting fires as thermal drone cameras can see through smoke and identify hotspots quickly. Below you will find our 2017 infographic on firefighting drone use cases.
