Fire Rescue Victoria (FRV) has released an Expression of Interest (EOI) for organisations to participate in an RPAS BVLOS trial project.
Fire Rescue Victoria (FRV) has initiated a project to study the possible utilisation of Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems (RPAS) in Beyond-Visual-Line-Of-Sight (BVLOS) situations, to support the management of fire, rescue and other emergency incidents.
The project includes a major, one-off operational trial where it is planned that RPAS will be deployed BVLOS to simulated emergency incidents.
It is planned that the outcomes of the operational trial will, ultimately:
guide the development and implementation of practices and procedures to underpin and facilitate safe and effective use of BVLOS RPAS to support the management of actual fire, rescue and emergency events; and
inform future decisions regarding the selection and utilisation of RPAS capabilities to support the management of actual fire, rescue and emergency events in the future.
FRV are holding industry briefings this Thursday, September 19 at 1.30pm (AEDT)
