Done for Search and Rescue in National Parks, Taiwan

With the technology advance, cost of drone dropped and they certainly can help National Park in Search and Rescue – drop the cost both on money and more important in human risk. Improve response time and handle worse weather and terrain challenges.

With the drone offering becoming more and more available and cheaper in cost, better in performance. It is very achievable with one single developer to find good drone, utilize cell tower as communication channel for both controlling the drone and feedback video information. Just like the first two browser was done by the same person in short time. This proposal WILL bring a solution to table for the National Parks in Taiwan and respond in any stress call in time to save life and focus on the man power or helicopter to be effective in search and rescue effort.

If anybody sees this and believe it is doable, please feel free to implement it such the resolution can be enjoyed by the few that might need rescue.

There was an incidence of avalanche in Mount Rainier. A company was monitoring their team that was camped up the snow. They recorded a drop of couple hundred feet of the campers/hikers – all of their employee and customer were NOT responding to the communication. The NP’s helicopter was dispatched and saw the debris to confirm the death of the hikers. I have been watching the park rangers of Rainier NP – they walked fast in heavy snow ice with their old style leather boot. But the terrain in this case was just not reachable by human. Hence the helicopter visual confirmation became the last thing available.
