AVENTURA, FL / ACCESSWIRE / October 11, 2024 / Safe Pro Group Inc. (NASDAQ:SPAI) ("Safe Pro" or the "Company"), a leading provider of artificial intelligence (AI) solutions specializing in aerial imagery processing, today announced that its Mission Critical Unmanned Solutions® subsidiary, Airborne Response (Airborne), has deployed its uncrewed aircraft systems (UAS) teams in support of new and existing customers as part of the massive recovery efforts now being conducted in Florida following Hurricane Milton, a large Category 3 storm which made landfall on Wednesday.
According to Poweroutage.us, approximately 2.9 million people in Florida are without power as a result of Hurricane Milton. Airborne's flight crews are already actively supporting the state's largest power utility under contract, assisting restoration efforts in response to storm damage and it was recently awarded a new emergency services contract by Florida's second largest municipal utility operator to provide personnel, equipment and assistance in response to disaster events such as hurricanes. Airbornes' drone teams are now deployed across multiple Florida counties supporting its power utility clients as well as other customers including Citizens Property Insurance who is utilizing its services to rapidly assess property damage claims.
"The growing use of drones in critical infrastructure damage assessment following hurricanes like Helene and Milton demonstrates our capabilities' vital role in service restoration. Our flight teams are now actively supporting multiple customers across the state in what is expected to be a massive recovery effort in the weeks ahead. We thank our dedicated flight crew members for their efforts to help restore essential services to the millions of Floridians impacted by this major storm," said Dan Erdberg, Chairman and CEO of Safe Pro Group Inc.
As one of Florida's top aerial managed services providers, Airborne has dozens of pilots trained and ready to respond in the aftermath of a hurricane landfall. Its drone services have supported disaster response efforts in Florida for nearly a decade.
Airborne Response customers include leading energy, telecommunications, and insurance firms across Florida. Its flight teams utilize sUAS to help assess the condition of Florida's power grid and evaluate storm damage to residences.
