Problem

Wildfire response is a race against time — the earlier a fire is spotted, the smaller the damage. Manual monitoring is slow and patchy.

Approach

Trained a computer-vision detection model to identify early signs of wildfire.

Deployed it for real use and worked with local government to fit it into their response workflow.

Impact

Adopted by local government.

Credited with reducing wildfire emergency response time by 25%.
