Frequently Asked Questions

Energy utilities, firefighting and rescue teams, land management agencies, and state and local governments rely on the cameras for wildfire risk monitoring, early detection, and faster response.

Through the AEM Elements 360 application, camera views can be overlaid with weather data such as temperature, wind, and lightning to deepen situational awareness.

Yes. Solar-powered fixed and PTZ units with battery backup operate where no utility power or internet connectivity exists. Lightweight mounts enable rapid deployment, and integrated connectivity streams data directly to AEM Elements™ 360.

Fixed cameras continuously monitor a defined high-risk area with low power needs. PTZ (pan-tilt-zoom) cameras deliver 360° guard tours, optical zoom for confirmation, and dynamic scanning of wide territories. Most networks blend both: fixed for critical infrastructure; PTZ for broad situational awareness.
