Description
In this presentation, we demonstrate a model for determining how drone technology is able to be used most effectively in order to reduce the damage of natural disasters. Additionally, drones can enable response teams to be more effective and safe. Our model is based on the wildfires in Victoria, Australia, and our work was part of the 2021 Mathematical Contest in Modeling.
