Our Fire Spread product was tested on the field. This blog explores how our customers ARAUCO from Chile utilize Fire Spread in real-life scenarios to combat wildfires on the ground, and what future enhancements are needed.

This article explores the technology behind OroraTech’s Fire Spread Product, that provides real-time predictions, enabling frontline responders to plan routes and deploy resources effectively.

OroraTech has developed a cutting-edge next generation thermal sensor, that allows to detect fires and other thermal anomalies from space ultra fast and mitigate their catastrophic impact. FOREST-2 was sent to space on June 12, 2023, aboard SpaceX’s Falcon-9 rocket.

OroraTech leverages over 20+ satellite sources to protect more than 161 million hectares of forest from wildfires for customers worldwide. They also develop its own sensors capable of providing up-to-date thermal data of the entire Earth every 30 minutes, starting from 2026.

OroraTech partnered with three key organizations in Tasmania to protect people, property, and values from bushfires. Led by the Tasmanian Parks and Wildlife Service, OroraTech helps to detect fires early with remote sensing and provides valuable information to the firefighting crews on the ground.
