By next year, there should be a recommendation on how drone units should be set up, involving not only fire departments but also other aid organizations. Despite the increasing numbers, many deployment leaders are still not familiar with the deployment tool drone, requiring continued investment in training. A change of thinking within the entire fire department is necessary to adapt to these new technologies and tackle the challenges of the future.
