abstract="The utility and function of unmanned aerial systems (UAS) have continued to evolve in recent years, stimulated by conception of commercial (i.e., civil) opportunities. The onset of large-scale disaster events (e.g., wild fires, accidents, weather events, and nuclear, biological, chemical) contamination), can result in significant loss of life, damage to property and critical infrastructure, and disruption of service. The increasing effectiveness of UAS establishes a compelling case for providing expedited, economical, and flexible response to gain improved awareness of an emergency event and its effects. To reach the full potential of this technology, stakeholders from across the industry will need to make a concerted effort to collaboratively address potential concerns and issues.   Keywords: UAS, emergency response, disaster recovery, civilian application, disasters   <p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
