How Drones are Used in Public Safety
Tactical Situational Awareness
Even highly skilled pilots encounter GPS signal failure, making manual drones useless. Skydio’s 360° obstacle avoidance and GPS-denied flight unlocks safe and confident operations in obstacle-rich environments.
Search & Rescue
Cover more ground than ever before with a Skydio search and rescue drone. Scan the skies from above and fly low in obstacle-dense, hard-to-reach areas such as cliffs, along river banks, into ravines and ditches.
Hostile Scene De-escalation
Fly confidently at ground level, around obstacles and indoors using vision-based navigation. Get up close to dangerous situations to get eyes on the scene without putting officers at risk.
Incident Scene Documentation
Quickly and accurately document scenes pairing your Skydio drone with Skydio 3D Scan. Get better angles on critical evidence, sync data with Skydio Cloud or Axon Evidence and decrease societal impact thanks to a more efficient process.

Tactical BVLOS operations approval enables first responders to fly beyond visual range, cover much greater distances, collect more data with fewer deployments, and can keep operators out of dangerous situations.
“Close Proximity, Low Altitude flights will enable our drone teams to respond more quickly and efficiently to emergencies—enhancing the safety of the public and our officers. The Skydio Autonomy system enables officers to fly a drone safely and reliably in emergency situations without fear of crashing.”
- Lieutenant Don Redmond, CVPD UAS Commander
