Project Description

San Joaquin County initiated a program to help improve productivity and increase the efficiency of various tasks while promoting a safer work environment for the employees and residents of San Joaquin County. The Department of Public Works now utilizes unmanned aerial systems (drones) to decrease the occupational risks, provide pre and post site conditions and increase efficiencies of surveying and inspection activities.
