Where the fire is, we'll get there first!

Our "Where'S the Fire" (WSF) platform has the advantage of being thought to solve the following real problems:

  • Prior notice to residents about the risks, saving lives;
  • Reduction of false alarms;
  • Validation and qualification of NASA data;
  • Reduction of the response time of the brigadistas;
  • Communication during the combat operation;
  • Registration of useful information, such as: water bodies, better tracks and critical areas;
  • Creation of a database to: prevent, plan, optimize resources, identify patterns of occurrence.
