In partnership with the County of Kaua‘i and the State of Hawai‘i, EagleView is engaging with Snowbird Air LLC for aerial imagery flights islandwide for emergency response services through August 2021.
During this time, Snowbird Air will be taking pictures of the ground to identify building structures, landmarks, and terrain to aid the County in delivery of services and supply State EMS databases with up-to-date imagery.
Snowbird is utilizing a Piper Aztec twin engine and a Cessna 172 single engine aircraft to collect the imagery. All imagery flights are planned and flown well-above FAA minimum altitudes.
