Mobile Delivery: DRONE ASSESSMENT AND RESPONSE TACTICS (DART)
Overview
The goal of the DART course is to help front-line first responders and emergency management personnel to recognize and assess an unmanned aircraft event for a potential threat, and to give basic awareness of how to assess and mitigate that threat. This course provides class participants with the knowledge and tools necessary to detect, identify, track, assess, mitigate and respond to commercial and hobbyist unmanned aircraft operations in the United States. This course will provide first responders with mitigation and response techniques to use if they determine that an unmanned aircraft is operating in an unsafe or illegal fashion. The DART course also alerts the participants to the possible terrorist use of unmanned aircraft and enables them to understand the dangers represented by terrorist use of unmanned aircraft.
