Do you know that drones, also called unmanned aircraft systems (UAS), have practical applications
that have nothing to do with weapons or espionage? No? Here are a few to consider:
1. They can save lives. In natural and manmade disasters, UAS can be positioned to survey
damage, locate stranded and injured victims, and assess ongoing threats without risking the safety
of rescue teams and first-responders.
2. They can support law enforcement. UAS can be used to search for lost children, provide
tactical surveillance and suspect tracking, assist in accident investigations, and monitor large
crowds.
