Course Description

drone Public safety personnel are often required to put themselves in harm’s way to serve and protect citizens. Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (drones) can provide public safety personnel with detailed information so that response teams can make informed decisions. Through the use of drone technology and remote imaging, an individual can assess a situation and plan a response while mitigating any safety concerns for officers and bystanders. This hands-on course provides advanced flight procedures training to include mission planning, search patterns, deployment preparations, night operation challenges, and usage of thermography. The course culminates in a final demonstration of mission planning and advanced flight maneuvers, including night operations, according to the NIST Standard Test Methods for sUAS.

This course provides the participant with actual sUAS flight time utilizing a training quadcopter.
