Drones for wildfires

Drones are transformative tools in wildfire management, serving roles in early detection, real-time monitoring, and direct suppression. Equipped with thermal and visual cameras, they can identify hotspots and map fire perimeters through smoke. Heavy-lift drones can also carry and drop fire retardant, water, or extinguishing balls to contain spot fires or reinforce firebreaks. By providing persistent aerial intelligence and initial attack capability, drones enhance firefighter safety, improve tactical decision-making, and increase the overall effectiveness of wildfire response.

Key Points:
– Detection & Monitoring: Thermal drones map fire spread and identify hotspots for ground crews.
– Communication Relay: Act as airborne repeaters for radio communications in rugged terrain.
– Direct Suppression: Heavy-lift UAVs deliver water, foam, or retardant to critical areas.
– Night Operations: Provide continuous monitoring when manned aircraft are grounded.
– Post-Fire Assessment: Use multispectral sensors to map burn severity and assess damage.
– A force multiplier for forestry services and fire departments combating increasingly severe wildfires.
