Our Unmanned Ariel Vehicle (UAV) was selected due to its multirole capabilities for police operations. Not only does it assist in a more effective and efficient response to certain incidents, it also provides an investigative platform that would otherwise require the use of standard aircraft from outside agencies.
Police applications
- searching for missing persons
- serious or fatal traffic collision investigations
- crime scene investigations
- emergency response
- major incidents
Operating the UAV
We have officers from the Traffic Unit (Collision Reconstructionists) and Emergency Response Unit (Search and Rescue Coordinators) trained to operate the UAV. Our UAV is a Canadian-built Aeryon SkyRanger.
Transport Canada provides updated rules and regulations in Canada regarding Drone Safety.
