In New Brunswick, a group of researchers is pioneering an innovative strategy to address the escalating wildfire risk in Canada: instructing artificial intelligence to identify them more swiftly.
Engineers at the Université de Moncton are refining an algorithm designed to work in conjunction with satellite and drone imagery, surpassing human accuracy in detecting wildfires. The technology not only identifies fires but also forecasts their potential spread, assisting firefighters in strategically deploying resources.
