THE CHALLENGE
Public-safety and emergency teams need timely territorial information, coordination, and specialized training to respond better without turning technology into indiscriminate surveillance.
Grounded in the GAIA HumanTech Cochabamba proposal, Ojo de Águila is envisioned as a 12-month MVP for the municipality of Cochabamba. It would combine a pilot drone unit, real-time transmission, GIS analysis, photogrammetry, operational mapping, and technical training. Technology would support authorized decisions—not replace professional judgment or become a mass-surveillance system.
PROPOSED PILOT
Start small. Learn rigorously.
Equip and train
Establish a pilot unit and train officers in safe flight, geospatial analysis, documentation, and coordination.
Validate through exercises
Run controlled search, emergency, and incident-reconstruction exercises while documenting time, value, and safeguards.
EXPECTED OUTCOMES
Change we can observe.
Informed response
Visual and geospatial information available for authorized operational decisions.
Installed capability
Trained police personnel and documented internal procedures.
Coordination
Stronger collaboration paths among police, emergency teams, and technical actors.
Accountable evidence
Pilot results and limits documented before any expansion.
Initial indicators
- Officers trained and training hours completed
- Flights and exercises completed under protocol
- Territorial coverage and response times measured
- Privacy, operational-safety, and compliance incidents recorded
PARTNERSHIPS NEEDED
No serious project is built alone.
- Bolivian Police and municipal emergency management
- Universities and GIS and photogrammetry specialists
- Drone, software, and certified-training providers
- Human-rights, privacy, and data-governance experts
