Using a DJI Phantom 2 Vision+ quadrocopter that costs approximately $1,369, this all of the footage has been edited and condensed into a video that is seven minutes long, allowing the viewer to have an up close and personal view of a damaged post office, courthouse and church. Apart from that, you will be able to check out a collapsed garage with crushed cars trapped within in the video. For some musical accompaniment, credit goes to Napa-based musician Bill Scholer.
This just goes to show how drones can be used during an emergency, as it scouts ahead of humans to see whether there is presence of human life amidst the rubble. Of course, it will take a trained eye and perhaps even ear to do so.
