ZKI supports KIResQ drone exercise

The DLR-ZKI is involved as an associated partner in the KIResQ (AI-based evaluation of thermal images for faster location of missing persons) research project  and was involved in the final exercise of the project on 25th April. During the extensive exercise in Schwangau, Bavaria, more than 100 rescuers from search and rescue teams from mountain rescue, BRK emergency services, police, Technical Relief (THW) and water rescue came together to test the tools developed in the project, such as a so-called mission board with integrated AI image analysis, under real operating conditions.
