20 === **Action Sequence** ===
21
22 1. **Deployment and Startup**
23  a. Team leader identifies structure as unsafe and requests drone deployment.
24  b. Drone operator sets up and tests the drone, connects it to the C3I system.
25  c. Analyst prepares the interface to process and annotate live data.
26 1. **Initial Entry and Autonomous Navigation**
27  a. Drone autonomously navigates through the structure using onboard sensors.
28  b. Drone detects victims, hazards, and structural features.
29  c. Data is transmitted to the analyst in real time.
30 1. **Live Monitoring and Victim Identification**
31  a. Analyst verifies detections and flags victims or hazards.
32  b. If needed, operator switches to manual control for detailed exploration.
33  c. Confirmed findings are tagged on the C3I map.
34 1. **Data Marking and Coordination**
35  a. Analyst shares tagged map and video with team leader.
36  b. Team leader updates the plan and briefs USAR team.
37  c. Drone finishes scan and returns or continues overwatch mode.
