Henderson Police Department utilizes Unmanned Aerial Systems (drones) as tools to aid in the search for missing people, apprehend fleeing suspects, documenting crime scenes, assisting in hazmat situations, disaster response and more. The UAS program is regulated under the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Part 107.

Currently, there are two DJI drones in operation. One drone is outfitted with an optical zoom camera, while the other has a combination of visual and thermal imagery through the integrated radiometric FLIR thermal sensor.
