Drone-based Aerial intelligence for Government

Contact our Experts

Government programs must manage growing expectations and shrinking budgets. But, outdated modes of data capture can be inefficient and result in poor data integrity. Though new technology solutions are available to help improve decision-making and program management, adopting them has its challenges.

PrecisionHawk’s Unmanned Aerial Intelligence Technology Center of Excellence (UAS COE) is designed to help government agencies replace costly and inefficient data capture methods with aerial intelligence. The result: improved data integrity and more informed decision-making.

The UAS COE is backed by the cybersecurity expertise of leading government technology firm Booz Allen Hamilton, Inc. who draws on their decades-long experience to ensure that emerging drone technology platforms are cyber-sound and -secure.

A Collaborative, Consultative Approach

The UAS COE brings together a diverse group of experts, working collaboratively to consult with government agencies and contractors who want to implement the latest aerial intelligence technology.

This group offers consultative services in strategy, documentation, certification, hardware, software, and personnel, giving government agencies the support they need to build a business case for their project.

The COE's clients benefit from years of experience servicing the world's most influential governmental agencies:

Drone DJI M200

U.S. Department of Defense: Working with the Air Force, Army and Navy to support UAS hardware procurement and rapid prototype/pilot projects to show drones in action
U.S. Department of Veteran’s Affairs: Using aerial intelligence to baseline infrastructure for master planning, facility management, and environment studies
The Department of Interior: Conduct facility condition assessments to optimize the operations and maintenance of existing infrastructure working with the National Park Service
North Carolina State Department of Transportation: providing on-demand support for critical transportation infrastructure inspections during natural disasters and pave the way for future drone operations with medical packaged delivery, through the FAA’s UAS Integrated Pilot Program
Many other federal, state, and local agencies leveraging drone technology for inspection, public safety, emergency response, asset and infrastructure management

Services

The Technology Center of Excellence was created to be a flexible, comprehensive resource for government agencies and contractors who want to adopt aerial technology to improve their data-gathering capabilities. Government agencies can depend on the COE to provide force-multiplying surge capabilities and UAS services, on-demand. The services we offer through this group include:

Emerging Technology Awareness

By keeping watch on complex, emerging technologies, the Technology Center of Excellence can help government agencies take a proactive approach to modernization, increasing acquisition confidence.

Proving Return on Investment

The Technology Center of Excellence can design and manage small, pilot projects to help build a business case for more widespread technology adoption. The group can also help evaluate legacy data-gathering approaches and recommend new approaches.

Compliance and Approval

With a firm grasp of the regulatory requirements often present in government projects, the Technology Center of Excellence can help prepare the compliance documentation needed to gain approval.

Technology Consulting

A team of experts in remote sensing hardware, sensors, and software--whether it be for drones, ground, or mobile platforms--can recommend configurations, including platform hardening, based on the application, data requirements, flight environment, and other factors.
