Global Nominee
Automated Detection of Hazards
Countless phenomena such as floods, fires, and algae blooms routinely impact ecosystems, economies, and human safety. Your challenge is to use satellite data to create a machine learning model that detects a specific phenomenon and build an interface that not only displays the detected phenomenon, but also layers it alongside ancillary data to help researchers and decision-makers better understand its impacts and scope.
CesuFire
Summary
We are developing an application that allows the visualization of fire outbreaks in Brazil and in the world and also the identification of the risk of burning in the national territory, indicating its location and also the biome to be affected, the application will also notify the user if he is in an at-risk area, and will alert authorities that provisional actions are taken in high-risk fire regions.
How We Addressed This Challenge
We show the focal points of fires and alert people according to their location. It is very important to ensure the safety of people and their families.
Basically the user accesses the application and visualizes the fire locations based on their location and can issue an alert to the authorities.
How We Developed This Project
Brazil is choking on fires and as a result a lot of forest is being cleared and animals are dying. We have to do something and fast! If we can find the fires and issue a warning to the authorities, we may be able to help prevent that.
