Wildfire decision path

A visual guide for teams that need faster situational awareness.

Start with the incident, the asset at risk, and the safety constraint. Then choose thermal, visual, satellite, mapping, or rapid-response workflows to support smarter decisions.

Do you serve my scenario?

Common wildfire environments we can assess from the air.

Wildfire smoke viewed from above

Active smoke and fire-adjacent zones

Perimeters, smoke plumes, exposed properties, access routes, staging areas, and infrastructure near active or recent fire conditions.

Remote infrastructure monitored by drones

Utilities and infrastructure

Power corridors, substations, communications sites, access roads, bridges, and remote assets vulnerable to fire damage.

Mountain property from above

Resorts and large properties

Pre-season baseline capture, defensible space review, post-event documentation, and operational planning for exposed properties.

How the workflow helps

See what changed before sending teams in.

  1. Confirm the risk area. Fire proximity, access, smoke, terrain, utility exposure, or damage uncertainty.
  2. Capture the right evidence. Use thermal, visual, satellite, drone, or aircraft imagery for the response question.
  3. Turn imagery into action. Route crews, prioritize repairs, document damage, reopen access, or monitor change.
