Uncrewed Aircraft Systems (UAS) Program

Drone

The Office of Emergency Management operates an Uncrewed Aircraft Systems (UAS) program to enhance emergency response and situational awareness. Using drones equipped with advanced imaging and sensor technology, the program provides real-time aerial support of large-scale events, helping to monitor crowd safety, and support decision-making in critical situations. UAS strengthens our ability to respond efficiently and safely during emergencies, ensuring better outcomes for the campus community.
