A method and apparatus for aiding a police officer in writing a report by creating a depiction of an incident scene is provided herein. During operation a drone will photograph an incident scene from above. Relevant objects will be identified and a depiction of the incident scene will be created by overlaying the relevant photographed real world objects onto a map retrieved from storage. The depiction of the incident scene will be made available to police officers to increase the officers' efficiency in report writing. More particularly, officers will no longer need to re-create the depiction of the incident scene by hand. Instead, the officer will be able to use the depiction of the incident scene.
