INTEGRATION OF UNMANNED AERIAL SYSTEMS IN MODERN CRISIS MANAGEMENT IN THE SLOVAK REPUBLIC
Abstract
Human societies have had to face various forms of threat, since the onset of our predecessors. For societies to survive they must be capable adapting to the fluctuations of environment, reinventing established society models and leverage development of technologies. Aside from securing sustainable society, development and implementation of technologies for defense against war conflicts, various forms of armed violence, including terrorism, but also natural disasters, epidemics or pandemics is indispensable endeavor defining survival from another point of view. Along with the gradual development of human society via levering technology for society overall benefits such as medicine, agriculture and environment, there is a constant development of the armaments industry and new technologies potentially threatening security and stability, therefore it is necessary to constantly adapt individual defense systems to new real as well as potential threats. The principal body of preparations for these possible scenarios is the crisis management of public administration. Based on theoretical concepts of crisis management of public administration, an integrated rescue system has been created, as one of the key subsystems of crisis management ensuring coordinated action of its components in crisis situations where there is an immediate threat to life, health, property or the environment. As part of the process of adapting to new potential safety risks at regional level, unmanned aerial systems (UAS) have considerable potential to increase the effectiveness of the integrated rescue system. At the same time, the practical implementation of unmanned aerial systems in the various components of the integrated rescue system necessarily requires adequate technical support for the UAS integration in the national airspace, transmission of collected data, trained personnel, technical compatibility of the gathered data with information systems used in the integrated rescue system and other special processes. This paper focuses on the current situation of UAS in the Slovak Republic from legislative perspective within the crisis management at the national level and regional level.
