SURVAIR, worked on a Shark Monitoring program for New York State Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation to patrol 3 miles of beaches in Robert Moses State Park. We continuously monitored between the hours of 10am and 3pm for hazardous swimming conditions due to marine life. To accomplish this, we used a variety of drones in our fleet including the DJI Matrice 300 (M300). We chose to use the M300 because of its multiple selection of payloads, including a 100x optical zoom RGB camera. Of all of thousands of drone projects that we have done for customers, this was one of the most unique projects due to its immediate impact on human lives. Luckily in all of our hours of monitoring, we did not see any sharks. But we take Pride at SURVAIR that we were privileged enough to contribute to the public safety of the swimming population at Robert Moses State Park in the Summer of 2021.
