Yuma, Arizona (azfamily) – A city in southern Arizona has launched a new public interactive drone map showing where city-owned drones are operating.
The City of Yuma has 12 drones in its fleet used for building and engineering inspections, traffic, fire investigations, special events, and training exercises.
City officials said the map is publicly accessible because they want residents to know what’s happening in the skies.
“This is an interactive drone map, and the purpose of this is the city of Yuma,” said Yuma spokeswoman Jen Miller. “While there is no federal mandate that requires us to share this information, we believe in transparency. We believe in informing our public about official urban drone activity, so now What they can decide is whether it’s a city-owned drone or someone else’s.”
