Operational use

CUSTOMS

Customs effectiveness relies on verifying intelligence quickly, monitoring transfer points, and maintaining custody of targets through logistics networks—often within short time windows.

Adam, Bertil, and David support port/terminal operations, inland logistics hubs, and coastal flows with rapid verification, tracking support, and robust documentation.

A key differentiator is that the platform family supports multi-role workflows: beyond observation, payload-release can enable controlled operational support such as marking containers/vehicles, delivering control kits to teams, or marking transfer points to improve coordination and traceability.

This table shows how drones become a practical, repeatable decision-support tool for control teams and operational command in both planned and time-critical operations.

Use Cases

Use case Operational value Environment Primary model Secondary model Typical level/user
Rapid “first look” on tip/alarm Verifies before committing resources Urban/Open Bertil Adam Ops lead/Patrol
Port: quay/terminal overview SA over flows and anomalies Port/Urban David Bertil Terminal team/OC
Port: container/yard inspection Detects anomalies without close contact Terminal Bertil Adam Control team
Close-in checks (containers/vehicles) Risk reduction before physical inspection Terminal Adam Bertil Control team
Entry/exit chokepoint monitoring Early detection of deviations Terminal David Bertil Ops command
Target custody (vehicle tracking) Maintains contact between nodes Urban/Open David Bertil Ops command
Inland: logistics hub overview SA for surveillance/operations Urban/Open David Bertil Ops command
Rural routes/forest roads Detects movement in remote areas Open David Bertil Border team
Stand-off suspicious object check Risk assessment without proximity Urban/Open Adam Bertil Control team
Joint ops with police Better SA, reduced risk Urban Bertil DavidAdam Incident command
Evidence / case documentation Stronger traceability and quality Urban/Open David Bertil Investigations/OC
Command support (shared video/log) Shorter OODA between OC and field Urban/Open David Bertil OC
Relay in terminals/terrain Maintains video/comms when masked Urban/Open David Bertil Ops command
Payload release: container/vehicle marking Synchronizes teams; reduces “lost in flow” risk Terminal/Port Bertil Adam Control team/OC
Payload release: remote delivery of control kit (seals/labels/sample bags) Improves efficiency without leaving position Terminal/Port Bertil David Control team
Payload release: transfer-point marking (quay/warehouse gate) Improves coordination & traceability Port/Littoral David Bertil Ops command
Counter-UAS: detect→track (cueing) Protects terminals/ops from drone recon Terminal David Bertil Security
