How fast can your team respond to a animal search and rescue request?Our team is trained to mobilise quickly, often within hours of receiving a call. Unlike volunteer services that may be subject to availability constraints, we prioritise rapid response to maximise the likelihood of a successful rescue.
-
What does a call-out include?A typical call-out from Eye in the Sky includes either a 60-minute drone flight over the areas of interest or, if weather conditions are too poor to fly or we're in a No Fly Zone, a 60-minute ground search using our advanced thermal imaging binoculars. This flexibility ensures that we can provide search and rescue services in various conditions, maximising the chances of finding your lost pet.
-
How does drone technology enhance the chances of finding a lost animal?Drones equipped with high-resolution cameras and thermal imaging technology can scan large areas quickly, including urban areas, shorelines and rough terrains. This capability significantly enhances the chances of locating a lost pet, especially in situations where ground searches might be slow or challenging.
-
Is drone search and rescue safe for animals and the environment?Yes, our drones are operated by experienced pilots who follow strict safety protocols. The drones are designed to be minimally invasive, ensuring they do not startle or harm pets during the search. We also ensure that our operations do not disrupt local wildlife or the environment.
-
What types of areas can your drones search for lost animals?Our drones are highly versatile and can search in a variety of environments, including mountainous areas, open fields, and urban landscapes. With advanced mapping and imaging technology, we can cover challenging terrains that are difficult or time-consuming for ground search teams.
-
How is your ground search more effective with thermal imaging than without it?Our ground searches are enhanced by the use of high-tech thermal imaging binoculars, which allow us to detect heat signatures from animals over long distances, even in low visibility conditions like or at night. This technology significantly increases our range and effectiveness compared to traditional search methods, enabling us to locate pets that might otherwise remain hidden from view.
