Abstract: The time-sensitive nature of water rescue operations demands effective strategies to reduce response times. This paper presents a comprehensive case study focused on improving incident response times in water rescues through the integration of water rescue drones. By analyzing existing response systems and evaluating the potential of drone technology, the study sheds light on the critical need for timely intervention in drowning incidents. The results highlight the challenges associated with current emergency response mechanisms in Germany and the promise of drone-assisted water rescue efforts. The findings emphasize the significance of this technology in enhancing incident response times, ultimately contributing to the reduction of drowning-related fatalities on a global scale.
