Wildfire is one of the most critical natural disasters that threaten wildlands and forest resources. Traditional firefighting systems, which are based on ground crew inspection, have several limits and can expose firefighters’ lives to danger.

They have been adopted to detect forest fires at their early stages, before becoming uncontrollable.
