A communal safeguard
“There was a fire ripping over a hill and coming down into a community, the [drone] aerial ignition operators pulled a really late night and they slowly walked the fire down from the ridgetop, just adding a little bit of fire here and there; we can really begin to control the fire’s intensity and begin to manipulate it.” Read more

Control intensity better
“The main benefit is we can burn at night or dense smoke as the aircraft can be operated utilizing the forward-looking infrared camera. Not only because you can control intensity better, but you can utilize it as a holding resource to find spot fires easily at night or in smoky conditions.”
