Description
I’m developing a concept called Noctua. At a high level, it is a private radio tower that acts like a “computer in the sky.” The aircraft itself would have a standardized hardware interface, and the software would manage communications, sensors, and mission-specific modules. I’m looking for someone who can help evaluate and potentially build the software architecture. It's a part time gig so you could focus on your full time work as a priority but I want your creative genius to make this right. The software concept would need to include: A secure user management system: Different user roles and permissions Civilian users vs. public safety agencies Authentication and authorization Audit logs showing who accessed what and when Emergency communications capability: Authorized fire departments/municipalities can send public safety announcements Broadcast authority follows incident command structures Ability to transfer authority during large incidents Messages are digitally authenticated and logged A modular hardware integration layer: The system detects connected payloads/modules Identifies what capabilities are attached Manages power/data communication Allows future expansion (weather sensors, cameras, communications modules, etc.) Network management: Ability to use different connectivity sources: WiFi Cellular Satellite Mesh networking Failover between communication methods A command dashboard: Emergency operations interface Drone status Sensor data Communication controls User
