Lost Pet Search Assistance

Lost Pet Search Assistance

BlueJay uses aerial and thermal imaging to help search areas that are difficult or time-consuming to cover on foot — a wider, faster view when every minute matters.

How Aerial Search Can Help

Wider Coverage, Faster

Quickly view larger areas that would take much longer to search on foot.

Varied Terrain

Fields, wooded edges, brush, open land, and other terrain appropriate for aerial coverage.

Thermal When Useful

Thermal imaging can be used when conditions make it a helpful search tool.

Possible Heat Signatures

Aerial thermal footage may help identify heat signatures worth a closer look on the ground.

How the Process Works

1

Contact BlueJay

Share the last known location and any relevant details about the search area.

2

We Evaluate Conditions

Location, airspace, weather, terrain, and access are reviewed before any flight.

3

We Search From the Air

Aerial and/or thermal imagery is used to cover appropriate areas.

4

You Get What We See

If something relevant is observed, that information can help guide the ground search.

Important search limitations: Thermal and aerial imagery are search tools — they do not guarantee that a missing animal will be located or recovered. Results can be affected by vegetation, structures, weather, temperature, terrain, access, airspace, and other conditions.
