DJI Mavic 2 Enterprise Dual assists in water rescue of man and three children
Last Tuesday, first responders were able to rescue a man and three children from the [mks_highlight color=”#ffff00″]James River in Concord, VA[/mks_highlight] with help from a DJI Mavic 2 Enterprise Dual Thermal Drone.
With the summer in full swing, more people are going to the water to cool down, however, this also means water rescues are reaching new high levels.
On Tuesday night the [mks_highlight color=”#ffff00″]Concord Appomattox Swift Water team[/mks_highlight] responded after a man and three children were reported missing near Mount Athos Road.
“Especially with the water as low as it is right now, getting a boat down the river is extremely hard to you know rescue somebody right now,” Hamlett said, according to ABC3News.
In 2020, according to Hamlett, they've had nearly 30 water rescues already which is nearly doubled their normal yearly average. The Concord Volunteer Fire Department has received the DJI Mavic 2 Enterprise Dual thermal drone through a[mks_highlight color=”#ffff00″]grant[/mks_highlight]. This unmanned aircraft allows the first responders to communicate to people stranded on the river by means of a loudspeaker.
