Public Safety Drone for Event Security
Use your public safety drone for hours of aerial overwatch to improve your reactivity and carry successful event security operations. Turn your UAV into a powerful crowd management system to protect people and provide efficient support to teams on the ground.
Benefits of Drones for Event Security
Safer Flight Areas
When tethered to the ground, the public safety drone remain captive and does not risk to escape. This increased security is crucial for operations in urban areas, safeguarding people from potential drone falls.
Instant Data Analysis
The tether provides power to the drone and facilitates instant and secure data transfer to the command post. When paired with a thermal camera, it helps find dangerous materials, unusual heat sources, or people who need help.
Compatible Multi-Drones
Designed for all your event security operations requiring a long endurance, our tethered stations are compatible with the largest number of drones for police, first responders, and security operators.
Persistent Surveillance
When tethered to Elistair station, your drone receives continuous power and becomes an aerial crowd management system. Able to remain on station for hours it can deliver constant live video before, during and after the event.
Bird’s-eye-view
With a tether length of up to 100 meters, your public safety drone can rapidly offer a global perspective of the event and its surroundings enabling the monitoring of several points of interests simultaneously
Portable & Easy to use
Easy to use, our stations are designed to accompany you in all your missions. With over 1500 systems deployed worldwide, we are continually improving their usability to provide you with seamless operational support.
Elistair’s Public Safety Drone Solutions
We design our tethered drone solutions to meet the stringent demands of law enforcement and public safety professionals. Security teams at concerts must monitor the crowd, entrances, stages, and surrounding areas to ensure safety and organization.
They are responsible for keeping everyone safe and maintaining order at major events. This includes watching for any potential threats or disturbances and responding quickly to any emergencies that may arise.
Crowd management services must accomplish this while dealing with the unexpected, ensuring seamless communication with all personnel, and managing costs efficiently.
In recent years, drones have revolutionized events security operations due to their unparalleled ability to provide a comprehensive aerial view of extensive areas. However, traditional drones for public safety face significant limitations, including restricted battery life and the risks of drifting or crashing—hazards that are unacceptable in crowded environments.
This is where Elistair’s tethered drone solutions excel. We designed our tethered stations based on user feedback and they are compatible with the widest range of public safety drones.
Your drone easily connects to its station using our plug-and-fly system. It can fly for hours without consumming its batteries. The tether keeps the drone safely connected to the ground, preventing it from flying away or crashing. In addition, the drone can send data and camera footage quickly and safely to the command post via the tether.
In practice, the operator can set up the drone and tethered station within 5 to 10 minutes. The drone can then quickly reach an altitude of up to 100 meters, providing a comprehensive view of the event. Data is live-streamed to the command post and can be shared with remote security centers, ensuring flawless communication among all teams.
“By using Elistair tethered drones, I was able to gain a significant advantage in keeping people safe at a large event. The imagery provided enabled a huge increase in my situational awareness, the ability to witness events first-hand as an incident Commander, and to provide assistance to my officers if needed without having to rely simply on radio-voice communications.”

Public Safety Drone: A Key Asset for Event Security
Crowd Management
Public safety drones tethered to our stations can fly steadily at heights of 70 to 100 meters, providing continuous overwatch of crowds across areas spanning 2-3 square kilometers. This extended operational time ensures that crowd management services maintain a comprehensive, uninterrupted view of both the crowd and the surrounding environment throughout the entire event.
Equipped with powerful cameras, these drones can quickly zoom in on specific details, offering a deep understanding of evolving situations. This information is live-transmitted to control posts, enabling real-time decision-making. The unique 360° aerial viewpoints allow operators to track moving targets over significant distances with far greater accuracy and less risk of losing track compared to ground-based surveillance cameras.
Coordination of the Operations
By providing a continuous and stable aerial view, our tethered drone solutions ensure that events security companies, law enforcement and emergency responders, have a shared, real-time understanding of the entire event area. This unified perspective is crucial for effective communication and swift decision-making.
High-definition video are instantly sent from the public safety drone to command centers, allowing security managers to monitor the event as it unfolds. They can thus quickly identify potential issues, and relay critical information to on-ground teams. The seamless integration of aerial insights with ground operations ensures that all units are working with the same information, significantly reducing the risk of miscommunication.
If a situation arises in one part of the event, the command center can immediately direct the nearest security personnel to the location, while continuously providing updates from the live feed of the public safety drone. This ensures a rapid and well-coordinated response, minimizing response times and improving overall event safety.
