Lali Wildfire Detection leverages Internet of Things (IoT) sensor technology to gather information from sparsely populated areas, and help firefighters accurately monitor the spread of a fire and plan how to contain it.

The small device, which is expected to cost less than $5, can record temperature, light, and other environmental factors that are triggered during a fire. Then they transmit this information using low-power networks like SigFox. All data is collected using the IBM Watson IoT Platform, on which visualizations and data prediction models can be built, showing first responders which communities are most in danger.
