Robert,
Your proposal for the integration of drones in emergency and disaster management operations is commendable and should be value added to the EM community. Your problem statement is clear in the respect that it highlights the potential for drones to overcome historical challenges in response operations. The inclusion of a mixed methods approach, paired with using existing literature/policy, strengthens the context of your research and emphasizes a holistic understanding of the topic. As such, this thesis proposal seeks to improve gaps in knowledge and practices, therefore, effectively enhances the capability and capacity of emergency and disaster management. Overall, your proposal demonstrates a comprehensive approach to advance knowledge in the field and should yield a fruitful outcome. The use of real-world, tangible examples will help to conceptualize the problem set and also identify potential solutions to address these deficiencies. I look forward to seeing how your research evolves.

Mr. Awono,
I love this topic. It holds a special place in my public safety career. Several years ago I was the only dispatcher in the state of California to be invited by the Police Officer Standards and Training unit to participate as a subject matter expert on the use and implementation of UAS/UAV operations for law enforcement agencies throughout the state.
I agree that drones are one of the most powerful tools to be implemented in public safety in recent decades. They will, eventually, replace traditional rotor wing aircraft for public safety surveillance use. I believe this to be several decades away, but I still believe it will occur. The current uses for sUAS/sUAV in public safety are like the tip of the iceberg. The overwhelming majority of operational and tactical uses of the tech have yet to be implemented or discovered. And that is just on the law enforcement side of public safety. The fire/EMS side of public safety will soon start to see the benefits and will also soon implement the tech for their own operations.
One of the largest operational issues with the implementation and deployment of sUAV/sUAS technology is the public buy in. the use of drones as a law enforcement tool still new, and the amount of vetted case law surrounding them is still limited. There is some, especially as it pertains to surveillance operations, but it is still limited. To my knowledge as of now there is are no “landmark” supreme court cases surrounding the tech and law enforcement. The potential political repercussions especially for lower levels of elected office and sUAV/sUAS use can be severe if they approve such tech for public safety without first properly vetting the use with the community. There is great potential for civil rights and privacy infringements with the technology.

Good Evening Robert,
I am sure this will prove to be a very rewarding topic. I am fascinated by the use of drones in emergency management and implications for future use. We are also seeing that drones can be used illicitly as reported via open-source media coverage of the middle eastern conflict. In the United States, it seems that certain agencies have been quicker to adopt the technology than others.
Your approach to evaluating how drones can help with first responder surveillance will be very helpful for the emergency management field. The Coast Guard is evaluating how drones could augment aviation support that would typically be used during disaster response. For example, during a large oil spill event impacting a major coast line, a drone might be a more efficient way to capture real-time trajectory reports and monitor environmental impacts. I think that hurricane response is another great example. Drone surveillance would assist in damage assessment reports, such as port and ship assessments necessary to reconstitute major waterways.
There are also complexities associated with working through: operator usage requirements, FAA approval and other federal and legal regulatory requirements. Most importantly, I believe that privacy will be a large factor in allowing wide-spread drone usage. How does the average citizen respond to seeing a drone flying above as they are walking down a street? Or they look out their window and happen to see it flying by?
You discussed analyzing the pros and cons of drone usage. One con that comes to mind is the risk of complacency. If emergency managers start to rely too heavily on drones to provide situational awareness, they might lose the value that comes from human judgment. I don’t think that machines can ever replace the onscene expertise and practical field experience that a human brings towards evaluating disaster mitigation requirements.
Good luck as you continue to analyze and move forward with this topic.
Sincerely, Michelle
