Monitoring the fire risk of 5 million buildings using AI applied to satellite imagery
By Simon Lamy, VP public sector et Aurélien de Truchis, Tech Lead vegetation & IA, Kayrros
Today, 90% of buildings that do not properly maintain vegetation nearby are destroyed when a wildfire reaches them.
This is why public authorities aim to enhance monitoring of vegetation maintenance around buildings and key infrastructure.
However, there are millions of sites concerned, and "traditional" surveillance methods (on-site visits, aerial surveys, etc.) require substantial resources. As a result, the surveillance rate falls significantly short of the objectives.
Satellite data is abundant and can be leveraged to address this issue. Given the vast number of sites to be examined and the diverse range of local situations, this data needs to be processed to be usable within reasonable cost and time constraints. New cloud infrastructures and AI now make this possible.
Kayrros will introduce the AI-based tool and open satellite imagery platform the company has developed to assist public authorities and insurance companies in wildfire prevention
