Scalable, distributed architecture supports millions of low cost sensors.

​

Enables large-scale deployment of sensor networks.

MONITORING & ANALYTICS

Cloud big data tools for analytics, monitoring and alerting.

​

Ultra-early detection of forest fires during smoldering phase.

​

Actionable information and tools for forest owners.

USE CASES

Dryad provides solutions for public and private forests. Its ultra-early fire detection and forest health and growth monitoring provide actionable insights based on live data gathered from Dryad sensors and compatible third party sensors.

ULTRA-EARLY

FIRE DETECTION

Enables firefighters to extinguish wildfires before they spread

​

• Dramatically reduces costs of firefighting

• Prevents economical damage

• Saves human lives and wildlife

• Reduces risk and insurance

Public Forests

HEALTH & GROWTH MONITORING

Enables forest owners to monitor health and growth of the forest

​

• Reliable, repeatable data collection

Private Owners

SPEED MATTERS

When it comes to wildfires, time is of the essence. Dryad provides ultra-early fire detection, sensing smoke and hydrogen gas which is emitted by pyrolysis in the early stages of a smoldering fire, giving fire fighters valuable time and a chance to extinguish the fire before it spreads out of control.
