MatrixSpace has announced that the Palm Springs Police Department (PSPD) has expanded its Drone as First Responder (DFR) program, establishing the largest first responder agency coverage area (37 square miles) monitored by radar sensors instead of humans in the United States.

MatrixSpace has announced that the Palm Springs Police Department (PSPD) has expanded its Drone as First Responder (DFR) program, establishing a responder agency coverage area of 37 square miles monitored by radar sensors instead of humans. According to the company, the PSPD’s program expansion was made possible with multiple remote drone launch points across Palm Springs utilizing MatrixSpace’s low airspace awareness technology. This has also supported the city’s application for an FAA No Visual Observer flight operations waiver to ensure the safe separation and avoidance of both general aviation and commercial aircraft.

The Palm Springs Police Department (PSPD) has expanded its Drone as First Responder (DFR) program, making it the largest first responder agency coverage area in the United States to be monitored by radar sensors rather than human observers. This expansion, covering a vast 37 square miles of Palm Springs, was facilitated by the implementation of MatrixSpace’s innovative low airspace awareness technology.

By expanding the DFR programme, PSPD and intelligent sensor innovator MatrixSpace are establishing the United States’ largest first responder agency coverage area (37 square miles) monitored by radar sensors instead of humans. The PSPD’s programme expansion was made possible with multiple remote drone launch points across Palm Springs utilising MatrixSpace’s low airspace awareness technology. This innovation has also supported the city’s application for a FAA No Visual Observer flight operations waiver to ensure the safe separation and avoidance of both general aviation and commercial aircraft.
