That does seem like an excellent application, no doubt. SAR teams probably are already using them, and I doubt they'd have a need to hire out for the service.


Almost all law enforcement , game departments have drones and many have Thermal devices in addition to aviation and they train often using this equipment.And they'll work in inclement weather conditions unlike the OP.
