A system for finding wildfires very early on that uses sensors, a wireless network, and an analytics platform.
Dryad Silvanet cuts firefighters’ response time by a huge amount and lets them put out a fire before it gets out of control. The solar panels power the wireless sensors, which measure things like temperature, humidity, and air pressure. It has sensitive
