AERIAL INTELLIGENCE Leveraging over 34 years of cleared professional aviation, U.S. intelligence and federal investigative experience along with over 40 years of photographic and videographic experience, Atlas Aerial Intelligence is an advanced drone-services provider that creates detailed, accurate, insightful and timely aerial and aviation-focused intelligence and creative imagery . Aerial Intelligence: What it is and Why it Matters Information that is collected, processed, and analyzed to provide previously unknown insights about something is called intelligence and it can be derived from many sources. The U.S. military developed the term "Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance " (ISR) , and overhead information captured by dedicated ISR drones, manned aircraft and satellites provide unique and impactful visual insights on whatever is desired to be known. Whether it is military, humanitarian, media, incident response, risk and emergency management or commercial applications, aerial intelligence is a critical enabler in planning and operational roles...to obtain timely and accurate information and affect desired outcomes. Drones are an excellent aerial intelligence and imagery platform. Here are just some of their capabilities: 2D Orthomosaic Mapping Think of it as satellite overhead imagery without needing a satellite. Maps produced from drone imagery provide near-real time overhead situational awareness from an easily deployed, efficient and cost-effective solution generating highly-detailed maps in minutes! Use Cases: Event, Facility & Security Planning Incident Response Emergency & Event Management Investigations & Forensics Historical Documentation Construction Progression (Overhead Map of Spotsylvania County (VA) Fire Station 5.) 3D Modeling Drone-based 3D "digital twin" model reconstruction made with sophisticated accuracy. Use Cases: Event, Facility & Security Planning Film making & Location Scouting Incident Response Historical Documentation Asset Visualization Construction Progression Real Estate (3D Photogrammetric Model of Virginia Credit Union Stadium. Home of the Fredericksburg Nationals, Minor League Affiliate of the Washington Nationals.) Real-Time Streamed Aerial Surveillance Specialized aerial video techniques that can be streamed to decision makers, security managers and incident commanders to affect desired outcomes. Use Cases: Security Overwatch Investigations & Surveillance Operations Incident Response & Emergency Management Electronic News Gathering (ENG) Event & Crowd Management Thermal (Infrared) Surveillance Imagery based on temperature differences of objects in the field of view enables awareness when optical (visual) sensors lose effectiveness in low-light or poor visibility situations. Use Cases: Security Overwatch Investigations Intelligence Gathering Low-light / No-light / All-Weather Operations Emergency Management / Search and Rescue Aerial Imagery High-quality images from above that paints a picture or a posture. Use Cases: Security Planning Investigations & Forensics Intelligence Gathering Historical Documentation Marketing & Advertising Content Imagery from Overhead Perspective Imagery from Inaccessible Locations by Ground Drones are a Game-Changer for Aerial Intelligence! With advanced sensors and well-planned and well-executed missions, commercially-available drones are a force in commercial and civil uses. Drones are a cost-effective, easily deployable, and capable information and imagery collection solution for a wide array of use cases. Drones slot in nicely between ground-level sensors (such as human observers) and expensive-to-operate helicopters and aircraft. Drones provide access and can generate optical, thermal and other sensed insights from places where other traditional sensors can't go. Finally, and possibly most importantly, drones can provide current reality of an asset or event...the "as-is" of something. Information is perishable. Bad (or stale) information (intelligence) is worse than no information at all. Decision makers, incident command er s, producers and risk managers need a current and accurate assessment of a situation in real-time, and as the saying goes "a picture is worth a thousand words". Drones can provide that exceptionally well. When combined with numerous, sophisticated t hird-party commercial applications that offer tremendous capabilities to generate a wide variety of informational (intelligence) products, we quickly learn how drones are truly an information game-changer.

ABOUT About Atlas Aerial Atlas Aerial (Recon Five Media LLC) was founded in 2018 in Virginia and is led by Rick Charles who was born with a love for aviation and being a part of big things. Growing up in New York City, Rick was immersed in an environment of big newsworthy events and famous places. Rick was fascinated with the breaking news stories that appeared from locations throughout the city as well the news helicopters that covered the stories from above the city. ​ Atlas Aerial is a U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs-certified Service-disabled, Veteran-Owned Small Business . About Rick Charles, Owner, Chief Pilot and Director of Operations Chief Pilot and owner Rick Charles brings over 34-years of first-hand experience in military and civil aviation, combat-experienced command and control operations, U.S. intelligence and federal law enforcement, 9-1-1 emergency services (fire & EMS) as the foundation and inspiration for Atlas Aerial. ​ Rick has over 2,800 military flight hours including over 300 combat flight hours from Operation Desert Storm as a United States Air Force aviator. In addition, he is a long-time veteran of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, U.S. Intelligence Com munity and the FAA National Security team. ​ 34+ Years of Professional and Aviation Experience with: Our Equipment Atlas Aerial flies DJI Unmanned Aircraft . We fly the Matrice 30T , Inspire 2, Mavic 3 Pro Cine , Mavic 2 Enterprise Advanced, Mavic 2 Pro. and Avata FPV aircraft which can capture images in 4K high definition, in RAW and stream in HD as well as possesses a robust thermal capability! ​ DJI's most capable aircraft for incident response, public safety operations, security and news gathering is the Matrice 30T (M30T). The M30T is an all-weather, long endurance, multi-sensor aircraft capable of optical and thermal imagery collection, subject tracking, video streaming, video capture and other enterprise-level functionality not available in other products. ​ The DJI Inspire 2 is a high-quality aerial cinematography platform used by movie and TV Directors of Photography in Hollywood and around the world. It can capture 4K images and stream live video for broadcasting purposes. ​ The DJI Mavic 3 Pro Cine features next-level imaging performance. Mavic 3 Pro's triple-camera system ushers in a new era of camera drones by housing three sensors and lenses with different focal lengths. Equipped with a Hasselblad camera and dual tele cameras, Mavic 3 Pro Cine is a triple-camera drone that unlocks new shooting perspectives. ​ The Mavic 2 Enterprise Advanced (M2EA) brings a zoom capability in both a traditional optical (visual) and a sophisticated thermal sensing system able to display in 10 different color palettes. Our M2EA is the same UAS aircraft and sensor used by the New York City Fire Department (FDNY) Command Tactical Unit and FDNY Robotics Unit to inform Incident Commanders at 2nd alarms or greater incidents with aerial and thermal information. The Mavic 2 Pro is another tried and true platform in our fleet. It has a smaller form factor that excels when a discrete presence is required. The Mavic 2 Pro uses a Hasselblad lens to capture images in crisp definition and high dynamic range and also is 4K High Definition broadcast platform. We use the DJI Smart Controller to enable HDMI live broadcast connectivity to our broadcast production station. Back to Home Back to Top
