ABOUT DRYAD
We use a large-scale IoT network of sensors to detect wildfires and to provide valuable forest insights and analytics.
OUR STORY
After several successful startups and exits in IT, electronics and telecommunications, we now want to apply our expertise to solve real-world problems. Witnessing forest fires increasingly threatening the world's largest carbon sink compelled us to think of innovative solutions to protect our invaluable natural resources by harnessing the power of nature and technology.
OUR MISSION
In Greek mythology, dryads are tree spirits living in symbiotic relationship with their hosts. Our artificial 'Dryads' monitor, analyze and protect forests using cutting-edge technology. Our mission is to tackle wildfires via early detection, monitor the vitality and growth of forests and other vital ecosystems, and to protect and restore the critical natural resources upon which we all depend.
OUR TECHNOLOGY
Dryad develop a wireless environmental sensor network based on LoRaWAN: the leading open-standard for long-range radio IoT networks. Our patent-pending distributed architecture enables large-scale deployments in areas without existing network coverage. Data collected in the network is processed using cloud-based big data tools for analytics, monitoring and alerting.
TECHNOLOGY
At Dryad, we believe in open industry standards to enable integration with a wide range of 3rd party wildfire sensors and extend the range of data provided to our analytics platform.
