Archer Unmanned Air Systems (Archer UAS), technology company with a 911-integrated drone deployment system, has announced a partnership with RapidDeploy as part of its Lightning Partner Program. Archer’s lifesaving drone deployment software, Archer First Response Systems (AFRS), will be integrated into the RapidDeploy SaaS platform, enabling 911 agencies to better locate victims and dispatch time-sensitive, lifesaving supplies by drone with the touch of a button. RapidDeploy’s cloud-native SaaS platform has been deployed at over 500 public safety agencies and 911 call centers, with an additional 150 deployments currently in progress throughout the U.S.
The Archer First Response System consists of four core components: Archer’s 911-integrated aircraft deployment software, an autonomous aircraft, its Ground Control Hub housing unit, and Archer Survey, a proprietary artificial intelligence-based satellite analysis platform used to pinpoint more than 55,000 unobstructed coordinates for optimal emergency delivery.
