Fireline Analyzer road map

from project concept to working machine language model 
Phase 1: Conceptualize the problem:

Since the year 2000, 254 wildfires have burned over 100,000 acres each and 16 have reached over 500,000 acres in size. In 2022 alone over 7.5 million acres were burned, destroying 2,717 structures, 46% of which were residential. Total damages cost roughly $10 billion.

Nationally our reliance on Wildland Firefighters is increasing as fire seasons grow longer and busier, however the number of total firefighters continues to decrease. This has lead to fewer equipment and personnel assets available during busier fire seasons.

That's where Fireline Analyzer come in to play; our goal is to help agencies responding to large wildfire incidents utilize their air-born thermal assets to efficiently and accurate assess large fire lines and help direct ground assets where they are most needed first and keep fires from jumping containment lines after forward progress of a fire has initiall by stopped.

Phase 2: Build our process:
  • Contact our sales team for a consultation and to set up an agency account.
  • Log in and create a new mission.
  • Upload geotagged thermal images to your mission.
  • Once uploaded, images will be processed to gather geolocation and pixel-wise thermal data.
  • Our custom AI then compares the sets of thermal data to our thermal model and determines where firefighters should concentrate cleaning up containment lines first.
  • The analysis results are saved and presented on a map using the geotagged data from the image the AI suggests needs the most attention soonest.
Phase 3: Build our solution:

Our team is currently building out new solutions and our AI model using Machine Learning. Expect more to come by March 2024.

Phase 4: Basic rollout

Currently users can perform the following tasks:

  • Log in with a master account
  • Create sub accounts within an agency
  • View previous missions and flight results
  • Create missions and subsequently log flights under a mission
  • Upload images to a flight
  • While images are uploaded, our system gathers several data points from each image including embedded GPS coordinates and pixel-wise temperature data
  • Browse articles in our Resource page
  • Email support for assistance
