Service summary
Wildfires are a global phenomenon that can have a devastating impact on a country’s population and environment and represents a EUR 52 billion market affecting 5.8 million people worldwide. DANTE is an integrated low-cost solution for the early detection of forest fires featuring advanced methods to report and manage a fire within seconds of it starting. Its high performing image processor is embedded within a low-cost hardware platform and integrated into a smart connectivity network.
