2027 Agenda

In this session, hear about the City of Stamford, CT 's "Drone as First Responder" program, a city of 135,000 over 34 square miles. Their system can reach any point in the greater downtown area within 90 seconds. The drones are dispatched from rooftops in 10 areas around the city and can fly from the New York border as well as over the Long Island Sound. They also assist in surrounding towns and in highway coverage as Interstate 95 runs along the coast of CT. In this case study, learn how they created the DFR program for the city, how it fits within their public safety environment, what the drones have changed for public safety, and what technology they integrated.
