SILVANET WILDFIRE SENSOR

Speed is everything when it comes to wildfire alerts. Learn more about how Dryad's AI-supported solar-powered gas sensors can detect wildfires in minutes.

The Silvanet Wildfire Sensor is designed for ultra-early detection, identifying forest fires within minutes to minimize damage and impact.

Sensitive to Hydrogen, Carbon Monoxide and other gasses, this “electronic nose” can smell fires as early as the smoldering phase, enabling firefighters to extinguish them before they spread. It also monitors microclimate conditions by measuring temperature, humidity, and air pressure. 

The sensor employs highly sensitive gas detection with built-in AI to ensure accurate fire detection and minimize false alarms.

Using LoRaWAN for wireless data transmission, the sensor operates maintenance-free for 10-15 years and uses supercapacitors instead of batteries, eliminating the need for lithium and other toxic materials.

ULTRA-EARLY WILDFIRE DETECTION

FOREST HEALTH & GROWTH MONITORING

  • Significantly reduces reaction time

  • Prevents economic losses

  • Lowers risk and insurance costs

  • Saves human life and wildlife

  • Reliable, consistent data collection

  • Enhances forest planning effectiveness

  • Prevents diseases and fights droughts

  • Optimizes tree growth and maximizes ROI

SPEED MATTERS

When it comes to wildfires, time is of the essence. Our wildfire detection sensors provide ultra-early fire detection, sensing carbon monoxide, hydrogen and other gases emitted by pyrolysis in the early stages of a wildfire, giving fire fighters valuable time to react and preventing ruinous megafires which are devastating to the environment.
