The United States Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has awarded a total of $2.7 million dollars to different universities in order to support research on how drones could support disaster preparedness and emergency response operations.
According to the government agency in charge of regulating civil aviation in the United States, the studies will explore the use of unmanned aerial vehicles to provide effective and efficient responses in a variety of critical situations, both natural and human-made.
The research will address coordination procedures between drone operators in federal agencies, as well as state and local organisations. In total, the Federal Aviation Administration will provide $2,768,070 dollars to six different educational institutions.
