VIDEO HANDOFF, NOT AIRCRAFT CONTROL

Turn an approved public-safety video handoff into visible operations

Callaba begins only after the responsible agency or platform provides an approved video handoff. From that boundary, operators can receive compatible media, inspect it in Multiview, route approved outputs, and create operational recordings without treating Callaba as a drone, dispatch, evidence, or aviation system.

APPROVED HANDOFF TO OPERATIONS VIEW

Keep mission authority separate from the live video path

Document the handoff first, then validate receiving, viewing, routing, recording, access revocation, and reconnect behavior with the real upstream system.

  1. 01

    Define the boundary

    Record who owns dispatch, flight control, airspace authorization, the upstream platform, evidence policy, and the approved video egress.

  2. 02

    Receive the documented feed

    Use a compatible RTMP or RTSP handoff, or name and verify the separate bridge when downstream architecture requires SRT.

  3. 03

    Observe and route

    Place approved feeds in Multiview and route only the outputs and viewer roles accepted by the operating plan.

  4. 04

    Record under policy

    Treat Callaba recordings as operational media copies unless the agency's approved evidence system and policy explicitly govern a separate transfer.

EVIDENCE-BOUNDED OPERATIONS

A visible media layer after the public-safety handoff

Operators can validate the media path without expanding Callaba's role into mission control or regulated agency responsibilities.

01

Explicit video boundary

Name the upstream platform, protocol, bridge if any, and responsible owner before Callaba receives the feed.

02

Role-separated viewing

Give approved viewers a browser operations surface without granting aircraft-control or dispatch privileges.

03

Tested media recovery

Exercise primary and backup paths, reconnect behavior, access revocation, and recording retrieval with representative accounts.

WHERE THE WORKFLOW FITS

Use the same operating model across real production scenarios

Drone as First Responder video handoff

Receive the documented platform output after the agency and authorized pilot have established the mission and aviation boundary.

Incident operations viewing

Present approved live feeds to operational viewers without representing the media surface as a dispatch or incident-command system.

Temporary operations center

Bring compatible field feeds into a monitored wall, controlled routes, and operational recording on cloud or approved Linux infrastructure.

PRODUCT LAYER

Choose the Callaba products behind the workflow

Start with the modules the operators need. Add the remaining capabilities as the production path, audience, and retention plan become clear.

WORKFLOW QUESTIONS

Public safety video operations FAQ

Does Callaba dispatch or control a Drone as First Responder aircraft?

No. Callaba starts at the approved video handoff and does not replace the drone platform, remote pilot, dispatch process, flight-control system, airspace authorization, or agency operating procedures.

Can a DFR platform be described as sending SRT directly to Callaba?

Only if that exact upstream capability is documented and verified. The existing DFR guide records DJI FlightHub 2 livestream forwarding as RTMP or RTSP; if SRT is required, the architecture must name and validate a separate bridge.

Does a Callaba recording become an agency evidence record?

Not by itself. A Callaba recording is an operational media copy unless the agency's approved evidence system and policies separately govern classification, chain of custody, retention, disclosure, and deletion.

Who owns aviation authorization and operating authority?

The responsible agency and its authorized operators own the applicable aviation pathway, mission approval, pilot authority, and operating procedures. Those responsibilities remain outside Callaba.

Can the Multiview demo validate a complete public-safety deployment?

No. It demonstrates the browser viewing surface only. Acceptance requires the actual upstream handoff, representative accounts, authorization boundaries, primary and backup paths, reconnect behavior, access revocation, and retention review.
