SARCast - SAR in the Arctic Circle
Listen now
Description
For this episode of SARCast we welcome a guest into the fold, someone who we met through the discord server who lives life a little bit differently to what we are used to, and has been part of some very interesting developments in the SAR world. Ralph is a member of a SAR team in Norway, quite far North in Norway in fact. He joined Richard for a conversation about life above the Arctic circle, how SAR is managed there, and the different challenges faced when operating in an extreme environment. They also dive in to the fascinating projects which Ralph's team is leading on, developing a drone specifically to help with SAR. From pinpointing avalanche beacons, to assessing the safety of ground conditions for rescue and more. If you or your team are interested in being a guest on the show, please get in touch with Amy: [email protected] Links: @nfmidttroms @norwegianpeoplesaid @norse_asset_solutions_as Discord - https://discord.gg/wWBaxdS83Y
