Media
The Division of Emergency Management strives to document disasters, emergencies, mitigation and natural phenomena, as well as preparedness actions, drills and exercises and a little bit of humor. Oh, and we have a DJI Phantom quadcopter (unmanned aerial vehicle or UAV). We are required to report its usage, but we’re proud of what it is able to capture and tell us.
