Drones For Safety And Surveillance

How can Drones be used for security and surveillance? Drones can help to:
- Conduct patrols in a large area
- Provide a wide perimeter view
- Prevent "intruders" by detecting suspicious activity
- Track specific targets (individuals and vehicles), so that the Security Team can monitor potential security threats
- Search for lost people and objects in hard-to-reach areas
- Monitor critical infrastructure (power plants, dams, and pipelines) to prevent accidents
- Monitor wildlife populations and track their movements to protect endangered species and conserve natural resources
- See in the dark
- Detect hazardous materials (gases)

Some of the challenges that must be faced:
- Drones can be used to collect data about people and this data can be used for malicious purposes
- The use of Drones must comply with applicable regulations so that it can complicate the deployment of Drones in some areas
- Drones usage may be affected by weather conditions (wind and rain) and this can hinder the Drones' work and reduce the quality of data collected

Benefits And Assistance Drone Provides To Fire Team

Drone with its ever-new technology can be a valuable tool for Fire Teams. Some of the benefits and assistance that Drone can provide to the team:
- Flying directly over the fire location
- Being the "eyes" for the team and providing information about the fire that occurs
- Performing tasks that are too dangerous for humans
- Accessing dangerous and hard-to-reach areas
- Seeking and finding victims trapped behind the smoke, darkened rooms, burning buildings, and other structures
- Identifying hot spots
- Assessing the size of the fire
- Mapping the fire boundaries
- Extinguishing fires, especially those that occur in areas that are difficult to reach by the team

Drone helps Firefighters plan their attacks and ensure they get all hot spots.

Some other exciting things:
- Drone cannot be hurt and killed
- Drone can be repaired and replaced
- Drone is already being used by Fire Departments around the world

So, let's use Drone to help us :-)

Emergency In Helideck

Some of the emergencies that usually occur in the Helideck:
- Fires caused by fuel spills, electrical short circuits, and hot objects
- Objects dropping from Helicopter during Helicopter take-off and landing
- Strong winds can complicate the operation of the Helicopter and can also increase the risk of fire
- Corrosion on the Helideck caused by seawater makes the Helideck slippery and can increase the risk of falling

Steps to take in the event of a fire at the Helideck:
- Staying calm, because panicking will only make things worse
- Turning on the alarm
- Wearing PPE
- Putting out the fire with a fire extinguisher if the fire is small
- Asking for help from the Fire Team and Emergency Services Team if the fire is big and out of control
- Listening to the instructions of the Firefighters if you are assigned to help handle the fire
- Regardless of the type of fire, evacuating immediately via a designated escape route

One important thing to always remember: Stay away from fire, heat, and smoke!

The above Safety Procedures that can help to ensure the safety of anyone working at Helideck can be learned by taking the right training.

Why Companies Should Use Drones

Some of the reasons why companies need to use Drones:
- Drones can help Security Process
- Drones can help Search and Rescue Missions
- Drones can face dangerous and extreme environments, conditions, and situations (crimes, fires, natural disasters)
- Drones can adapt to bad weather (rain, strong winds)
- Drones have sensors that can work faster and better than humans
- Drones can work at night because the sensors on the Drone can see things that are located in dark areas that the human eye cannot see
- Drones can see various objects behind and inside things (behind walls, indoors)
- Drones can provide the required information
- Drones can work in Real-Time and Live

Do not hesitate to use Drone because:
