first i will say that I must admit I was disappointed, based on your headline/subject line I was hoping story was more.. saucy lol
now seriously this is fantastic, you could imagine how if the police made good relations with the drone community think next time there is a missing kid or parent or such, amber alert or such in America (missing more then kidnapped).
if the police could call on the community, imagine kid goes missing, swarm of (managed not disorganised) drones going up in the air, doing survey grid shots (dronedeploy/autopilot both can do) even of areas which could then be gone over afterwards by people at a desk looking for details in the shots.
