02 Jul National Wildland Firefighter Day
🌲 Honoring Our Heroes on National Wildland Firefighter Day 🌲
Today, we recognize the immense dedication and sacrifice of wildland firefighters and their support teams. As we reflect during this solemn Week of Remembrance, firefighter safety remains the ultimate priority.
Historically, poor fire-weather forecasts have led to tragic outcomes on the fireline. A critical mission at Black Swift Technologies is to help protect these crews from above by delivering precise, real-time intelligence. Our S0 VTOL UAS is designed for rapid deployment and is uniquely capable of fully autonomous flights in extreme atmospheric conditions to gather critical data.
We are incredibly proud to develop these life-saving solutions alongside our dedicated partners:
NCAR: Collaborating on weather-model directed UAS sampling to vastly improve fire-weather forecasts and keep personnel out of harm’s way.
Colorado Center of Excellence (CoE): Building a specialized plugin for COTAK so our drones can stream live, integrated situational awareness data directly to emergency commanders.
USGS & Pepperwood Preserve: Mapping soil and live fuel moisture over high-risk areas to better predict explosive wildfire growth.
To all the front-line responders: Thank you for your unwavering bravery!
