Job Description

Founded in 2016, Edgybees provides accurate geo-registration and augmented
reality of aerial video in real-time, enabling defense, public safety, and
critical infrastructure command centers to accomplish life-saving missions. To
date, the referencing and positioning of streamed video from aerial sources
has been inaccurate, often with dangerous consequences. Edgybees’ Visual
Intelligence Platform, a software-only solution based on Computer Vision and
Machine Learning technologies, delivers highly accurate geo-mapping and
tagging of aerial video in real time. This unique approach allows for rapid
decision-making by visually augmenting roads, key landmarks, and other
mission-critical data on top of live video feeds – via its own platform or by
integrating with third-party systems. Edgybees’ operational perspective
dramatically reduces time-to-target and enhances team collaboration,
situational awareness, and mission effectiveness. For more information, please

The Edgybees platform was initially used in 2017 to aid first responders
during Hurricane Irma. It was subsequently used in 2018 during Hurricane
Florence and, in 2019, to facilitate rescue during the California wildfires.
The successful application of Edgybees technology in these mission-critical
situations led the defense industry to the company.
