Avwatch Launches Operations in Cape Cod, Massachusetts

CAPE COD, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Avwatch (www.avwatch.us), a firm focused on improving airborne technology capabilities for homeland security professionals, today announced the launch of the new company in Cape Cod, Massachusetts. Avwatch commences operations with a nationally recognized executive team holding more than a decade of operational security and disaster response experience. Avwatch is dedicated to supporting the homeland security operations of both the private and government sectors through airborne platforms that allow security professionals to view real-time aerial imagery and data.

Avwatch’s unique airborne platform permits homeland security professionals the freedom to interact directly with aircraft, generate requested flight routes, specify the data to be collected and precisely control the onboard camera sensors. Communications between the ground user and aircraft are provided via the Internet, meaning the user and aircraft can communicate in real time, permitting immediate aircraft tasking and retrieval of data and imagery updates from anywhere in the world, at anytime. Avwatch provides homeland security professionals with a low-cost solution that is capable of conducting routine patrols efficiently and effectively.

Another innovative Avwatch service, for the protection of critical infrastructure, provides homeland security professionals the ability to specify the frequency of security inspections, as well as the data collected from each location. When the inspection is completed, a comprehensive report is delivered to authorized security personnel through a secure Internet connection. If the client desires, Avwatch will then archive the information and facilitate secure data retrieval for the purposes of historical and forensics analysis.

“As a Coast Guard officer, I spent the last decade improving the Guard’s operational processes and technologies to meet homeland security requirements,” said Chris Kluckhuhn, President, Avwatch. “I am excited to announce the launch of Avwatch, which I formed to rapidly implement the new technology capabilities that we as homeland security professionals require to meet both our daily mission and disaster response needs. To support these operations, Avwatch’s aerial platforms provide a real-time ‘eye-in-the-sky’ that improves situational awareness and mission effectiveness.”
