June 21, 2023 at 4:28 pm, No comments


Amplicam, a leading provider of early wildfire detection and monitoring systems, recently had the opportunity to participate in Sacramento's highly anticipated Wildfire Technology Management Summit 2023 #WTMS2023, held in April. The event drew a multitude of professionals from the industry, creating a vibrant atmosphere buzzing with knowledge and innovation. Over the course of two days, Amplicam had the pleasure of connecting with numerous individuals, exchanging ideas and forging valuable connections.

Among the notable encounters, we were delighted to meet and engage with passionate experts, such as @Kim Zagaris, @Tonya Hoover, @Ben McGrane, @David Green, @Brian Fennessy, Brian Marshall, Jeff Meston, @Kim Connors, Jerome Perez, and many more, who share our commitment to addressing the pressing issue of wildfires. Their deep understanding and firsthand experiences reinforced the significance of our mission and fuelled our determination to make a positive impact. It was truly inspiring to witness the collective enthusiasm and collaborative spirit that permeated the conference.

At Amplicam, we recognize the urgency and global scale of the wildfire problem, particularly evident in the United States where approximately 70,000 wildfires occur each year. California, in particular, has been no stranger to the devastating consequences of these natural disasters, making the need for effective solutions all the more pressing.

The Amplicam Wildfire Guardian, a cutting-edge system designed to detect fires at the preheat stage, leveraging commercially available cameras and advanced analytics software. Early detection is paramount in minimizing the damage, losses, pollution, and resources consumed by wildfires. By identifying fires in their incipient stages, we can swiftly mobilize resources, coordinate responses, and mitigate the impact of these destructive forces.

Our innovative solution is built upon a network of existing video surveillance cameras, harnessing their inherent capabilities with the aid of proprietary software. This comprehensive system provides centralized coordination, efficient resource management, and robust report generation. Additionally, our Geographic Information System (GIS) visually represents the precise locations of cameras and identifies potential hazards, offering invaluable insights for prompt action.

Participating in the Sacramento wildfire conference has reaffirmed our belief in the power of collaboration and knowledge-sharing. Engaging with industry professionals has not only expanded our network but has also deepened our understanding of the challenges and opportunities in the field. We are excited about the prospects of serving the US market in the years to come, as our presence in North America grows stronger with offices established in both the United States and Canada.

As we reflect on our experience at the conference, we remain committed to pioneering innovative solutions that combat the devastating effects of wildfires. With the Amplicam Wildfire Guardian at the forefront of our efforts, we are determined to make a significant difference in protecting lives, properties, and the environment. By leveraging technology and collaborative partnerships, we can foster a future where the destructive power of wildfires is mitigated, enabling communities to thrive in harmony with nature.

We’re looking forward to see everyone next year at the Wildfire Technology Management Summit 2024!
