One system. From detection to eyes on the fire.

01/Stage by stage

1. 01

   Sensor node

   Distributed environmental sensing

   Field-hardened nodes placed across terrain monitor local conditions continuously and report over a wireless network.

   • Designed for solar power and long unattended service intervals
   • Low-bandwidth wireless links suited to remote terrain
   • Sensing set intended to include temperature, humidity, and particulate indicators
   • Node health and connectivity reported alongside measurements
2. 02

   Detection

   A potential wildfire event is identified

   On-node and ground-based processing look for the signatures that separate a potential ignition from ordinary daily variation.

   • Local processing at the node reduces bandwidth and latency
   • Cross-referencing neighbouring nodes to reduce false positives
   • Thresholds intended to adapt to season, terrain, and weather
   • Every candidate event carries its supporting measurements
3. 03

   Alert

   Event and location sent to the Operations Center

   A detection becomes a structured alert — location, time, supporting sensor data — routed to people, not just a dashboard.

   • Structured event payload with geospatial position
   • Redundant communication paths where coverage allows
   • Alert enters a queue with an auditable timeline
   • Duplicate and related alerts grouped into one incident
4. 04

   Operations Center

   24/7/365 monitoring, evaluation, coordination

   Someone is watching. Alerts are reviewed, incidents are opened, missions are coordinated, and the record is kept as it happens.

   • Continuous monitoring of the detection network
   • Alert review, triage, and incident creation
   • UAV mission coordination and asset tracking
   • Communications with field personnel and response partners
5. 05

   UAV dispatch

   An aircraft can be assigned to investigate

   When an alert warrants a closer look, an aircraft is assigned a mission with the event location as its objective.

   • Mission definition tied to the originating incident
   • Pre-flight checks and airspace considerations
   • Payload selection for the conditions
   • Launch and mission state tracked in the Operations Center
6. 06

   Autonomous flight

   The UAV navigates toward the event

   Autonomous or operator-assisted navigation moves the aircraft toward the coordinates while telemetry streams back.

   • Waypoint navigation toward the event location
   • Operator oversight and takeover by design
   • Position, altitude, and health telemetry in real time
   • Behaviour on link loss defined as a safety requirement
7. 07

   Investigation

   RGB and thermal sensors provide aerial eyes

   Optical and thermal payloads look at what the ground sensors could only infer — is there a fire, where exactly, and what is around it.

   • RGB imagery for human-readable context
   • Thermal imaging for heat signatures through haze and low light
   • Georeferenced frames tied to aircraft position
   • Persistent observation over the area where appropriate
8. 08

   Intelligence

   Imagery, thermal and geospatial data processed

   Onboard and ground-based processing turn raw frames and telemetry into a coherent picture of the incident.

   • Location, imagery, and thermal information combined on one map
   • Incident timeline assembled from sensor, flight, and operator events
   • Terrain and access context layered alongside the event
   • Designed for export in formats responders can actually use
9. 09

   Responder

   Useful information delivered to the people responding

   The output of the system is not an alarm. It is a clear, verified picture handed to the people who decide what happens next.

   • Concise incident summary with position and imagery
   • Ongoing updates while the aircraft is on station
   • Human review before anything is passed on
   • Responders remain the decision-makers, always
