The tiny satellites detecting and helping put out wildfires CTech
Terra Space Lab, an Israeli space tech startup, is using remote sensing Earth observation technology to detect wildfires early-on. The company aims to develop an early warning system for wildfires and provide real-time information to first responders. By detecting fires at their early stages, Terra Space Lab hopes to prevent them from becoming uncontrollable firestorms. The company plans to launch a constellation of tiny nanosatellites equipped with sensors that can scan large areas of the planet and send warnings to first responders. In addition to fire detection, the sensors can also be used for detecting greenhouse gases, oil spills, measuring forest biomass, and monitoring ice within clouds. Terra Space Lab is currently in the process of fundraising and plans to launch its first demo satellites by 2023.
