Unmanned Autonomous Solutions (UAS)

Storm Preparedness and Damage Assessment

Effective UAS programs are built long before a storm arrives. Maintaining pilot readiness, verifying equipment availability, establishing communication plans, and defining response procedures in advance helps teams deploy quickly when conditions are safe.

After a storm, unmanned aircraft systems provide rapid damage assessments by documenting infrastructure, identifying hard-to-reach or unsafe areas, and delivering the data utilities need to prioritize restoration, improve crew safety, and make informed recovery decisions.

Whether you're operating an established aviation program or exploring UAS technology for storm response, Gresco UAS helps organizations prepare, assess damage, and support operational recovery.
