Early wildfire detection is essential for effective firefighting
Leveraging Vision AI and drone technology, ngex360.ai provides rapid, accurate wildfire alerts, enabling faster response times and potentially saving ecosystems and communities from devastating fires.
As climate change accelerates, traditional methods fall short. Our technology offers a proactive solution to an urgent global threat, making wildfire prevention more effective than ever.
Services
The low cost of drones enables us to gather important data for mapping our forest during the off-season of wildfires, identifying risk areas, and preparing teams for the upcoming wildfire season. This data is also useful for training our vision AI models and may be shared with others.
A swarm of tanker drones, capable of carrying up to 150 litres of water or fire retardant, is quickly sent to fight early-stage wildfires to prevent spreading until ground teams arrive.
By combining Vision AI with drone footage, IR sensors, and thermal cameras, our solution accurately assesses risks and quickly identifies hotspots and wildfires in their early stages, enabling faster response times.
Post-fire monitoring requires many resources, which our automated solution supplies. When hotspots are found, tanker drones can quickly detect them with thermal cameras and our AI model, and respond.
Coverage
Larger green areas, like forests, may have lower or no 5G coverage. Our solution combines onboard AI and remote operations to reduce the amount of data sent to the backend, ensuring we can handle all situations.
We are using onboard Vision AI models, running on a small Jetson Nano board, which is both powerful and lightweight.
Alerts and important data are sent almost in real-time to our backend, allowing us to connect the sensor data with our operations and integrations.
Ngex360.ai’s innovative use of AI and drones has significantly improved our wildfire early detection capabilities. It’s a game changer in fire prevention.
