The SmokeD automatic drone-powered smoke and fire detection system is a solution for companies specializing in protecting the environment or utilizing outdoor infrastructure.
Our firefighting drones are the perfect complement to the SmokeD wildfire detection system for even more effective protection against fires!
Next-Generation Aerial Verification and Monitoring
Our autonomous drone inspection solution sets a new standard for wildfire threat verification and monitoring. Seamlessly integrated with our advanced SmokeD detection network, this fully automated drone system empowers forest managers, emergency services, and infrastructure operators to react quickly and precisely to any fire risk—day or night, regardless of environmental conditions.
Modern wildland management needs more than just alerting: it demands rapid, detailed insights and real-time coordination. That’s why our system bridges AI-powered alert detection with immediate aerial deployment, transforming how critical areas are inspected and secured.
How the System Works
Whenever a potential wildfire is detected through intelligent sensors and cameras, the system transmits precise coordinates directly to the drone’s dock station. Instantly, the drone launches autonomously and follows an optimal flight path—navigating safely around obstacles and adapting to changing weather—towards the reported incident.
Upon arrival, the drone conducts a thorough, fully automated inspection. High-resolution optical and thermal cameras document the area and stream live images to the control center. Live video, combined with GPS-synchronized data, enables command staff and field teams to assess threats and respond appropriately within minutes.
If needed, an operator can seamlessly take manual control of the drone using a secure web interface, fine-tuning the camera view or adjusting flight for targeted documentation—all without ever leaving the office or field command post.
When the mission is complete, the drone autonomously returns to its dock, where it recharges and enters standby, ready for the next call—24 hours a day, year-round.
Key Features and Benefits
Our autonomous drone inspection system offers unique advantages for large-scale wildfire prevention and response:
- Immediate Aerial Verification: Rapid deployment ensures incidents are accurately assessed within minutes, before small fires can escalate.
- Live HD and Thermal Imaging: Dual sensor payloads supply actionable intelligence, even in low-visibility or nighttime scenarios.
- Operator-in-the-Loop Flexibility: Human operators can intervene on demand, carrying out precise interventions or investigations when the situation requires.
- Web-Based, Intuitive Control: No specialized drone pilot training is needed. Secure web access from any browser enables both centralized and remote management.
- Full Automation & Readiness: Drone and dock are always prepared for deployment, with automatic battery management and self-checks to guarantee mission reliability.
- Regulatory Compliance: The system is built to meet the strictest aviation and data protection standards, with automated flight logging and reporting.
The Future of Wildfire Response
By closing the gap between threat detection and decision-making, our drone system adds a critical layer of security for forests, national parks, and infrastructure at risk. This approach reduces operational delays, increases situational awareness, and helps coordinate an effective emergency response.
From densely wooded regions to inaccessible mountain terrain, autonomous drone inspection ensures that no alert goes unchecked and every incident is addressed with speed and confidence.

Frequently Asked Questions - Fire Drones
Drones offer rapid identification of fire-affected areas, real-time fire progression monitoring, accurate terrain mapping, and safe data collection without endangering human lives.
Yes, “wildfire drones” are specially designed for monitoring wildfires. They might be equipped with specialized thermal cameras, sensors, and terrain mapping systems. Other fire drones may be adapted for different uses, such as building fires.
Most fire drones are primarily intended for monitoring and data collection. However, some models come with systems for spraying extinguishing agents, although their fire-fighting ability is limited and typically serves as a support for traditional fire-fighting methods.
Key challenges associated with fire drone use include disturbances caused by smoke and high temperatures, limited range and flight time, and the need for coordination with other aerial resources in the fire area.
Most modern drones are designed to be user-friendly, even for those without prior experience. However, specialized models for fire monitoring might require additional training.
