Description (French)
L'entreprise s'engage avec la communauté de la Première Nation Lytton à installer une série de dispositifs « internet des objets » conçus sur mesure dans les forêts environnantes et à mettre en place un système avancé de surveillance et de gestion des feux de forêt faisant appel à l'IA. Ce projet vise à promouvoir la résilience de Lytton face aux incendies de forêt par la détection des feux de forêt en phase naissante (c'est-à-dire la préchauffe et le préallumage) et la réduction de la vulnérabilité de la communauté aux effets négatifs des incendies de forêt.
