Hi
I am one of those Canadians who are waiting to the weather to become more acceptable to flying. I have not put my P4 into the air at least 3 weeks, maybe longer.
I am commercially license by Transport Canada to fly commercial missions. One of the local boat builders hires me to shoot videos of each new model of boat he builds. It is a little tense as I chase him around out over the ocean, or fly backwards so I can catch some bow-on shots as he is running 30-40 mph. You can view some of these at Silver Streak Videos - Island Imagery. I do also photograph constructions projects as the building occurs through the various stages. Most of the photos are not posted on my web site.
I am very interested to chatting with someone who may have worked in wildfire settings. Here is British Columbia, we had quite a summer of wildfire in 2017, and more are expected in 2018. I am preparing to purchase an Inspire 1 with a FLIR IR camera to begin some level of support in fire suppression. However, I do not have any protocols or operational guidelines with which to propose a business model with the local wildfire suppression authority. If anyone has any background or any documents which provide some of this type of information, I would love to read what the expectations of the drone operator are. How are the deliverables defined?
Thanks in advance.
