🚁 Searching Chippewa County's Diverse Terrain
Chippewa County includes agricultural land, forests, wetlands, rivers, lakes, and rural properties that can make ground searching difficult and time-consuming. Thermal drones allow us to search large areas from the air while adapting altitude, viewing angle, and search patterns to the terrain and conditions.
Thermal imaging does not see through trees, leaves, or other solid objects, but changing the drone's position and viewing angle can reveal exposed heat signatures through openings in vegetation. This makes a systematic aerial search especially useful when searching large or difficult areas.

For missing dogs and pets, Drone-Search uses thermal imaging to help search fields, wooded areas, brush, waterways, and other difficult terrain where an animal may be difficult to locate from the ground.
For deer recovery, thermal imaging and high-resolution aerial cameras can help locate deer after the shot, determine whether an animal is deceased or still alive, and provide useful imagery and precise GPS information when appropriate.
