SmokeD
IT for Nature
The SmokeD detectors are sophisticated devices intended for early fire detection and immediate notification of users about their occurrence. For that purpose artificial intelligence (AI) has been applied resulting in fast, effective, and accurate detection of smoke and flames up to 10 miles. SmokeD detectors monitor the area 24/7. When they detect smoke or flames, they automatically send an alert with the exact location of the fire to the users of the web or mobile app. The fire is detected within 10 minutes, so there is a high probability that it will be extinguished before it can get out of control. We have developed an automatic forest fire early detection system for organizations and companies that want to protect their sites and facilities from fire. Tell us about your problem with wildfires so we can prepare a GIS analysis for you and adjust the solution to your needs. -
