Drones are an increasingly effective tool for law enforcement operations but present extraordinary privacy concerns for many communities. This presentation will articulate best practices for using drones to build trust with community members while helping to address challenging law enforcement scenarios such as large gatherings, natural disasters, and mass casualty events.
Participants will be able to identify and institute key technical, legal, and operational practices that address the privacy needs of their community and maximize the effectiveness of their drone programs.
This presentation will consist of lecture, slides, videos, and other multimedia resources such as images and charts. The author has assembled data and policy information from DHS, The White House and other federal sources, observations from interacting with dozens of law enforcement UAS operators across the nation, and from his own experiences as a former Special Agent in the FBI.
