In the early ages, airships were only used for transportation of passengers & heavy material from one place to another. However, with the passage of time, they were increasingly utilized for advertising purposes. Airships provide you with a platform to advertise products & services in a cheap and economical way. An amazing recent development is a new concept that highlights the benefits of using these airships for spying purposes. Police departments, security organizations and military departments are planning to use these airships for spying purposes to control different types of crimes. On the other hand, police departments use airships for many other purposes like traffic control, search and rescue, observation and riot control.

Airships Use for Traffic Control

An increase in the number of cars on the road is causing different traffic issues like accidents, traffic jams, pollution, and many others. Usually, the police are the ones responsible for controlling traffic but sometimes, this task becomes too complicated for them due to severe traffic jams. In such situations, airships can help the police decide on ways that would control traffic and get rid of traffic jams. Currently, police departments of Germany and United States are using these airships for this particular purpose.

Usage for Tracking Speeding

All over the world, different rules and regulations are defined regarding the speed of vehicles to avoid accidents. The police force is responsible to check and balance of citizens who don’t follow these speed limits. Previously, speed limits were checked by cameras but in some cases, catching the culprit was considered difficult by the police due to high speed. However, airships are now being used by the police departments to catch people crossing the defined speed limits. The emergence of airships has made it easy for the police departments because airships can stay aloft for a long time while consuming very less fuel. Additionally, a single airship can cover even whole cities for detecting speeding vehicles.

Riot Control

The police force is also responsible for ensuring peace and harmony in their assigned areas. However, sometimes riots happen between citizen bodies and in such situations the police face much difficulty in controlling the scenario. In such cases, airships are highly useful in controlling the situation because police officials can easily identify the problematic area and can manage it efficiently.

Spying

The most renowned manufacturer company of airship is a corporation by the name of “Good Year Company” which is now working on designing airship with spying capabilities. Hidden cameras are installed in non-rigid airships, which are outwardly used for advertising purposes. In this way, these airships work, not only for advertising, but they also serve as spy airships for police departments. The videos recorded by these airships are then analyzed by police officials. Even now, these airships are used by countries for spying on the activities of neighboring countries.
