CTIF and the International Emergency Drone Organisation (IEDO) has signed a Memorandum of Understanding in order to cooperate and create standardized procedures for the use of drones in emergency services.
The agreement was made earlier in the Autumn of 2020, and the formal agreement between the two organisations were signed in a small ceremony online in December 2020. The agreement goes fully into effect this year, and will involve close cooperation not only with CTIF´s Executive Committee, but specifically as primary partnership with the CTIF Commission for Extrication and New Technology.
CTIF supports IEDO's conferences and has together with CTIF developed International Best Drone Practices for emergency responders.
