From a Gunshot Alert to a Drone Overhead in Minutes Across Montevideo, Uruguay

When a gunshot is detected in a dense city, the first few minutes decide how much responders know before they arrive.

In this NestGen session, Uruguay's Ministry of the Interior and Martín Fablet y Cía. will share how gunshot detection alerts are being connected to drone response across Montevideo so a drone can be over the scene within minutes, and what public safety agencies should think through when linking automated alerts to drone operations.
