Dry Pines, CA: a wildfire-ready community
For the sake of illustration, let’s imagine the community of Dry Pines, California.
A network of weather stations, sensors, and cameras has been installed throughout the area to build an intelligent wildfire danger rating, monitoring, and detection system that feeds back to a single powerful but easy-to-use intelligence hub.

FTS360-powered intelligence hub
Sitting at a desktop with FTS360, a wildfire risk management professional receives a steady flow of all the data they need to understanding wildfire risk across their community or service area. The simple but powerful intelligence hub includes:
- 24/7 fire weather intelligence dashboard
- Access to real-time lightning data from the Earth Networks Total Lightning Network (ENTLN)
- Automated notifications and alerts for potential fire risks or ignitions
- Real-time and curated images from the field presorted for easy interpretation
- Exportable reports to support wildfire response coordination
Wildfire PTZ Camera
These cameras have 360° point-tilt-zoom capabilities and automatically create a detailed, timestamped view of the field, providing a major improvement over traditional fire watch methods.
Compact Automated Weather Station
CAWS stations are deployed throughout the area, creating a hyperlocal profile of real-time weather conditions in the area including temperature, humidity, and wind speed/direction.
Fixed Remote Automated Weather Station
The RAWS is a rugged weather station specifically designed for long-term fire weather monitoring deployments. It only needs to be serviced once per year and provides data continuously.
Lightning Sensor
This sensor is optional because lightning intelligence data backed by a global network is already built into Dry Pines wildfire intelligence hub. Community risk management leaders placed this sensor here to conduct a long-term study of local lightning patterns.
