Flock Aerodome Integrations
• Flock911 - This allows for a live transcript of a 911 call to populate directly in the flight platform, notifying the pilot of a calla nd allowing them to deploy to it potentially minutes before it’s ever dispatched.
• Flock OS / Fusus - This allows the drone telemetry and video feed to be ingested by popular RTIC software platforms.
• Flock Nova - This combines Flock’s powerful Nova platform with the flight operations module so pilots can get critical information about involved parties, potential residents nearby, and other information that provides the ultimate situational awareness tool. • Flock ALPR Response - the flight operations ingests Flock LPR hits into the system, so the pilot can click one button and deploy directly to the last location while also receiving 1170 Howell Mill Rd.
