Had a lady state side of the pond who has reached out to me asking for help. Her message is below and I recommended a Mavic Pro using Ground Station Pro to generate images which they could analyse but I realise that time is of the essence. She is on Twitter with handle @LensTripping Can we have a drone positive story here? If you would like to offer help I’m sure she would appreciate it.
“Thank you for following me. I really appreciate it. [emoji4]
I was given your twitter handle by a follower of yours and a fellow photographer. I hope you don't mind me messaging you to ask for some drone related help.
I live in the USA, and I am part of a group of volunteers that have been working to locate 2 hikers that went missing on the Pacific Crest Trail in California.
I'm looking for some advice/suggestions (or possibly a reference I could contact) on what kind of camera/drone set up can be used for searching for people or gear in open wilderness. It would need to be able to produce hi-res images/videos that could be cropped, zoomed, and/or manipulated for searchers to comb through for clues.
Any suggestions or help you could provide would be very much appreciated.”
Thanks.
