796+ active wildfires across Canada right now

Wildfires don't wait.
Neither should detection.

Dragonfly Wildfire fuses AI vision cameras for fire & smoke detection, long-range connected gas sensors, and a real-time command dashboard. Enabling ultra-early wildfire detection for towns and communities.

The Threat

Every season is getting worse

Canada's fire seasons are longer, hotter, and more destructive than they used to be. The difference between a contained fire and a climate emergency is almost always how fast it was spotted.

16.5M ha
burned in 2023 — more than double the previous record, across 6,000+ fires
230K+
people evacuated during the 2023 season alone
2.5M ha
is the long-run annual average — 2023 burned nearly 7x that

wildfires actively burning across Canada as of this July update

The Solution

One system. Three layers of early warning.

Dragonfly combines edge AI vision, long-range gas/smoke sensing, and a live command center, to enable ultra-early wildfire detection.

AI-Powered Cameras

Edge-AI cameras watch the treeline continuously, classifying fire and smoke in-frame with a confidence score — no cloud round-trip required.

  • On-device fire & smoke classification
  • Detection boxes + confidence scoring
  • Publishes detections straight to the cloud

LoRa-Connected Sensors

Solar & battery powered field sensors track temperature, humidity, and smoke concentrations, relaying readings for kilometers over long-range radio link.

  • Temperature, humidity & pressure
  • Dual smoke classification sensing
  • Years of battery life in the field

Real-Time Dashboard

Every sensor and camera displays on a live map with instant alerting, historical trends, and official wildfire data layered right on top.

  • Live map with 3-state alerting
  • 30-point historical trend charts
  • CWFIS fire danger & hotspot overlays
How It Works

From the treeline to the responder's screen

Built entirely on proven, production-grade IoT infrastructure — no custom radio stack, no proprietary cloud.

Field Sensors & Cameras

Deployed across the monitored area

LoRa Gateway

Collects uplinks over long-range radio

LoRaWAN Stack

Decodes & forwards to Cloud

AWS Cloud

Secure MQTT over WebSocket, SigV4-signed

Dashboard Alert

Responders see it the instant it happens

The Dashboard

One screen, complete situational awareness

Live sensor map, camera detections, and official wildfire data — all in one command view built for fast decisions.

Features

Built for remote towns and forests across Canada

Instant 3-state alerting

Normal, warning, and alert states escalate automatically as readings cross thresholds.

Multi-gas & environmental sensing

Temperature, humidity, pressure, and smoke detection readings from every field node.

AI fire & smoke detection

Edge-AI cameras classify fire and smoke with confidence scores and detection labels.

Historical trend charts

Every reading feeds a rolling 30-point sparkline so you can see drift, not just snapshots.

CWFIS wildfire data overlays

Fire danger, perimeters, active fires, and hotspot layers straight from the official Canadian Wildland Fire Information System.

Built to scale

Architecture designed to grow from a handful of pilot sensors to hundreds across a region.

Who It's For

Built for the people accountable for the land

Towns & Municipalities

Municipal and First Nations communities monitoring across land, forests, and high-risk areas. Providing data responders can act on immediately.

Utility Companies

Protect transmission corridors and substations from ignition risk, and catch equipment-adjacent fires before they spread.

Corporations & Forestry

Monitor timberland, industrial sites, and remote assets around the clock without needing a permanent on-site crew.
