Whitesville Fire Department Uses Drone to Help Fight Fires

It's a new technology being used by the Whitesville Fire Department.

The drone can shoot regular video, but can also display several different thermal options, which show different heat signatures from people, vehicles, gas leaks, and yes, flames.

It will be able to help locate missing people during search and rescue operations, help in hazmat situations, with public service announcements, and more.
