The sUAS (small Unmanned Areal System) team consists of seven department personnel with representation from Search and Rescue, Bomb ​Squad, Air Support, Patrol and Technological Services. Currently, our primary focus is on the Search and Rescue unit.

We can use the UAS to search for lost or missing subjects and to scout for potential hazards to rescue victims and search and rescue volunteers before they initiate an action on a mission.
