Welcome to Drone World, the podcast by COPTRZ! In this episode, Sam Denniff & Tom Garnett join us to discuss some of the best stories coming out of January from the Public Safety sector. They also give some great insight into the direction drone usage is heading in for Police, Fire & Search and Rescue teams, as the technology becomes more widely adopted and the standard of pilots increases. 

Tom & Sam explains how LiDAR could be used to help police assess shallow graves, natural disasters and map/recreate crime scenes.

Sam says, “Maps and models can be used as evidence now […] What we’re seeing is scans of massive areas of ground and noticing that certain areas look disturbed. For example for shallow graves or areas where evidence has been buried, traditionally you’d have officers walking hand in hand across a field, and spend a lot of money on overtime for those officers. Now you can use a drone and complete the survey in a fraction of the time.”
