Drone-Integrated Rescue System, Pilsen

© The City of Pilsen

This project marks a significant innovation by seamlessly blending drone technology into Pilsen's urban emergency framework.

MODERNISING EMERGENCY RESPONSE

Pilsen faced the urgent task of modernising its emergency response system. Embracing drone technology, the city significantly upgraded its crisis management capabilities. This initiative involved deploying drones in a variety of emergency situations, including police operations, fire incidents, public event monitoring, search and rescue missions, and support in criminal investigations all over the Pilsen region. 

DRONES BRING VALUABLE INSIGHTS

The drones' live streaming feature provided immediate, on-the-ground insights for rapid and effective decision-making. Additionally, the project introduced an innovative method of creating detailed 3D models for traffic accident investigations, enhancing situational analysis and response strategies. This transformative approach extended beyond Pilsen, as the learning and experiences from various cases were shared nationwide, benefiting emergency services across Czechia. 

IMPROVING PRACTICES NATIONWIDE

The successful implementation of drones in scenarios, like monitoring football matches and aiding the fire brigade during emergencies, not only bolstered Pilsen's emergency response mechanisms but also established the city as a leader in using drone technology to enhance public safety. This pioneering initiative has not only reinforced local emergency services but also contributed valuable knowledge and practices to the commercial and governmental sectors on a national scale.
