Response infrastructure, working the day it arrives
Hardened, mobile, self-sufficient
The Aureum AC-16 droneport carries its own energy and surge-capable charging, with communications equipment configured to the mission, and needs no fixed infrastructure to run. For disaster response, search and rescue, and defense logistics, it arrives on a trailer and operates off-grid.
Why it matters
1,000+ rescued
By DJI’s own count, drones have been directly involved in rescuing more than 1,000 people worldwide, a running tally the company compiles from public news reports. DJI (company tally)
20.6 to 14.6 min
A randomized trial of drone-assisted search and rescue found the mean time to locate a patient fell from 20.6 to 14.6 minutes, and time to first treatment from 22.4 to 15.7 minutes. American Journal of Emergency Medicine

FAQ
How fast can an Aureum droneport be operational?
It is designed to stand up the same day it is towed in. It carries its own energy and surge-capable charging, and needs no fixed infrastructure to run.
What missions does the droneport support?
Disaster response, search and rescue, resupply, recovery, and defense logistics. It is built for austere and contested conditions, operating off-grid where existing infrastructure is gone.
What evidence supports drones in emergency response?
By DJI’s own public tally, drones have been directly involved in rescuing more than 1,000 people worldwide as of 2023. Separately, a 2023 randomized trial in the American Journal of Emergency Medicine found drone-assisted search and rescue cut the mean time to locate a patient from 20.6 to 14.6 minutes.
Can a fire district or county emergency manager procure an Aureum droneport?
Yes. It is scoped for public-safety procurement: grant cycles, mutual-aid agreements, and county budgets. Aureum provides the documentation a review board needs, and the same unit serves wildfire staging, search and rescue, and disaster logistics.
