I will continue to beat the drum 🥁 - video and AI as well as advanced grid control means more data needs to be transmitted whether by wireline or wireless communications systems.
We have begun deploying a network of high-resolution video cameras using artificial intelligence (AI) technology to provide enhanced situational awareness and early detection of ignitions in elevated fire risk areas near company infrastructure. The public will also have access to the live feeds from any of the cameras. Our crews recently installed the first camera station in Lahaina and has plans to deploy a total of 78 stations in elevated fire risk areas on the five islands served by the company, with each location having two cameras to provide a full 360-degree view. The camera feeds will be monitored 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The $14 million project is the latest step in our ongoing effort to reduce the risk of wildfires associated with company equipment. “We are continuing to take action to address the growing risks from wildfires across our service territory using a variety of technologies and methods,” said Jim Alberts, Hawaiian Electric senior vice president and chief operations officer. “Installing publicly viewable AI-assisted video cameras in elevated fire risk areas will enable the company, fire agencies, and emergency operations centers the ability to identify potential wildfires early and respond quickly.” We have signed a five-year contract with California-based ALERTWest. ALERTWest’s software platform, which is widely used in fire-prone areas through the Western U.S., is assisted by AI to detect smoke and other early indications of fire in real-time. It was developed by ALERTWest in collaboration with UC San Diego’s ALERTCalifornia team, California utilities, and the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection (CAL FIRE). ALERTWest also recently partnered with the University of Oregon and the University of Nevada, Reno, creating the largest publicly available, interoperable, AI wildfire detection system in the United States. The system is assisted by AI to detect smoke and other early indications of fire in real time, day and night. This allows first responders and emergency personnel to cross state boundaries in mutual aid situations and have access to the tool when needed.The AI Solution was recognized as one of TIME’s best inventions of 2023. The public will be able to access the live feeds from any of the cameras on the ALERTWest website at https://alertwest.live/. Half of the video camera stations are expected to be operational by September 2024, with the remainder to be installed in the first half of 2025. Read more: https://lnkd.in/dS3s8cBc

Raking over a "hot spot" before applying some water. Two articles from 2021 in Aisa Pacific Fire Magazine at: https://lnkd.in/grjKGTNG and https://lnkd.in/g9vghQ4G both covering thermal imaging camera use at wildfires. Among several topics, they cover the use of situational awareness (compact) cameras and the use of additional camera modes and features, included in the video clip here, observing the use of a rake hoe (McCloud tool) before applying water. #thermalimaging #thermalcamera #wildfire #seek #seekthermal #flir #wildfire

Wildfire Awareness Month is coming to an end, but the risk and reality are not! To date this year, the National Interagency Fire Center has identified almost 15,000 incidents and nearly two million acres burned. For much of the world, summer is just now approaching—a particularly dangerous and busy time. CANA is committed to supporting innovative technology efforts for wildfire management. We've supported activities like Project Vesta, a venture to combine COTS equipment, AI, and expert analytics into a semi-autonomous flying package of effective wildfire mitigation and response. And, we participate in collaborative spaces like INFORMS - the Institute for Operations Research and the Management Sciences - that bring together operations research, management science, and business analytics professionals to discuss tough problems and share best practices. Wildfires are just one example of the critical problems that they, and we, devote energy and analysis to.

Impressive work by Pano AI and the Washington State Department of Natural Resources. This article illustrates the potential of AI-driven technologies in enhancing our firefighting efforts and safeguarding communities. The success of the early detection system outside Seattle demonstrates the crucial role of real-time data in wildfire management. It's exciting to see such innovative solutions being implemented, and I hope this encourages further investment in climate adaptation technologies. A great read and a big shoutout to everyone involved! #WildfirePrevention #ClimateAdaptation
Pano AI was recently spotlighted in a feature by Government Technology about our ongoing partnership with the Washington State Department of Natural Resources. The piece highlights an early detection by Pano’s systems on rural land outside the Seattle Metropolitan area last summer that facilitated fire agencies’ rapid and successful containment efforts. The incident illustrates how AI-driven climate adaptation technology empowers first responders with real-time, actionable intelligence, enhancing their ability to protect communities from the ever-increasing threat of wildfires. We are grateful for the ongoing partnership with Washington DNR and urge more state government leaders to prioritize and allocate greater resources for wildfire mitigation technologies.
