The data provided by these systems could help agencies identify inefficiencies and reduce operating costs. We explored the current capabilities of two tracking systems and compared their data outputs to our measured data. To collect the information, we conducted drop tests over a grid at speeds and heights typically used by helicopters operationally.[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"clearboth\"><\/div><style>#thegem-divider-69f0f0f2c9723 {margin-top: 48px !important;}<\/style><div id=\"thegem-divider-69f0f0f2c9723\" class=\"gem-divider  \" style=\"\" ><\/div><style type=\"text\/css\">.thegem-button-69f0f0f2c98b99779 .gem-button svg {fill: #ffffff;}.thegem-button-69f0f0f2c98b99779 .gem-button:hover svg {fill: #ffffff;}<\/style><div class=\"gem-button-container gem-button-position-inline thegem-button-69f0f0f2c98b99779    \"  ><a class=\"gem-button gem-button-size-small gem-button-style-flat gem-button-text-weight-normal\" data-ll-effect=\"drop-right-without-wrap\" style=\"border-radius: 3px;background-color: #faa533;color: #ffffff;\" onmouseleave=\"this.style.backgroundColor='#faa533';this.style.color='#ffffff';\" onmouseenter=\"this.style.backgroundColor='#0b4a6b';this.style.color='#ffffff';\" href=\"https:\/\/library.fpinnovations.ca\/en\/viewer?file=%2fmedia%2fFOP%2f9529.pdf#search=Exploring%20the%20capabilities%20of%20helicopter%20bucket%20and%20helitank%20tracking%20systems&#038;phrase=false&#038;pagemode=bookmarks\" target=\"_self\">Report Document<\/a><\/div> [\/vc_column][vc_column width=\u00a0\u00bb1\/4&Prime;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] Project [\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text] Exploring the capabilities of helicopter bucket and helitank tracking systems [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=\u00a0\u00bb1\/4&Prime;][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text] Year [\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]2012[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text] status [\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Completed[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text] Researcher&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":26464,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"video","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[123,110],"tags":[120,118],"class_list":{"0":"post-27175","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-video","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-aviation-and-wildfire-chemicals-fr","8":"category-report-fr","9":"tag-aerial-fr","10":"tag-equipment-fr","11":"post_format-post-format-video"},"menu_order":0,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wildfire.fpinnovations.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27175","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wildfire.fpinnovations.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wildfire.fpinnovations.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wildfire.fpinnovations.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wildfire.fpinnovations.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=27175"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/wildfire.fpinnovations.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27175\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":27176,"href":"https:\/\/wildfire.fpinnovations.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27175\/revisions\/27176"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wildfire.fpinnovations.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/26464"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wildfire.fpinnovations.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=27175"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wildfire.fpinnovations.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=27175"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wildfire.fpinnovations.ca\/fr\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=27175"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
