Emergency Response & Disaster Recovery

Always-on internet for Crisis Response

Disasters strike without warning, and traditional communication networks are often the first to go down. Starlink provides mission-critical internet for emergency response teams, ensuring high-speed, low-latency connectivity even when infrastructure is damaged or nonexistent.

Powered by a constellation of low Earth orbit (LEO) satellites, Starlink enables real-time coordination, mapping, and communication—whether you’re responding to a wildfire in the mountains or deploying a mobile command unit after a hurricane.
