System and methods of protecting against the spread of fire. A method includes receiving data from at least one sensor. The method determines whether the data satisfies risk criteria for a first zone and/or a second zone of a plurality of zones of a structure. The first zone is associated with a first set of nozzles of a plurality of nozzles and the second zone is associated with a second set of nozzles of the plurality of nozzles. In accordance with a determination that the data satisfies the risk criteria for the first zone and not the second zone, the method provides first instructions to a pump to distribute a fire suppressant from a reservoir via a supply line fluidically coupled to the plurality of nozzles. The method further provides second instructions to a manifold to distribute the fire suppressant via the first set of nozzles and not the second zone.

A system and method for extinguishing wildfires with the assistance of soundwaves at a distance is provided. The system generally comprises a camera, output device, waveguide, processor, power supply, and a non-transitory computer-readable medium having instructions stored thereon that instruct the processor to perform operations of the system. In one preferred embodiment, a database may be operably connected to the processor and store any data associated with a combustion reaction therein. In some preferred embodiments, the system may comprise a computing device having a user interface, which may present, to a user, data that may inform the user about a particular combustion reaction and/or allow the user to control the system remotely. The system and method are designed to safely stop wildfires without a resource that must be spent and subsequently replenished.

A system and method for extinguishing and preventing a forest fire. This system consists of a forest fire detection device that detects a forest fire, collects data from the forest fire, transmit the data to either the fire department and/or an operator/user via a website, mobile app, or a control room, and alert the public of a forest fire commencing. This system also presents a spray device that consists of a head, sprayer, rotating mechanism, and a reservoir all working together as one to extinguish and prevent a forest fire.

The precision aerial firefighting and deluge system for helicopters and unmanned aerial systems is a device to attack fires inaccessible to firefighters due to altitude or other obstructions by streaming water or other fire retardant into or onto a specific location on the ground, on the water, or at altitude. The system employs a medium or heavy lift helicopter or unmanned aerial systems one or more tanks or bladders for water and/or fire retardant chemicals, a compressed air foam system, a pump, rigid plumbing lines for outflow of water/fire retardant; a rigid, telescopic boom that extends beyond rotor tip path plane, flexible lines/hoses inside boom; a crew switched electronic boom controller, a boom management system, a flange adapter, an electric, variable direction, crew-controlled fire monitor, a drop-hose, and a dart with inertial feathers.

Aspects of the disclosure include providing additional sources of water, and additional means for delivering the additional water, as needed in a fire emergency. A system in accordance with an aspect of the present disclosure provides pumping means, conduit for delivering water from a local source to the pump, and conduit for delivering the water as needed to fight a fire.

A GPS tracking and mapping wild fire defense system network configured for defending homes and neighborhoods against threat of wild fire by proactively spraying environmentally-safe anti-fire (AF) chemical liquid on property surfaces to inhibit fire ignition and flame spread in the presence of wild fire. The GPS tracking and mapping wild fire defense system network includes: a command center in operable communication with a wireless communication network; and one or more GPS-tracked mobile anti-fire liquid spraying systems, each having an integrated supply tank and a spray pump deployable at properties having building structures, for spraying the properties with environmentally-clean anti-fire chemical liquid using a spray nozzle assembly connected to said spray pump by way of a fluid connection. The system network further includes: a GPS system for transmitting GPS reference signals from a constellation of GPS satellites deployed in orbit around the Earth, to a GPS transceiver installed aboard each GPS-tracking mobile anti-fire liquid spraying system, for GPS processing and GPS-coordinate location; and one or more mobile computing systems, each for use by a registered user including property parcel owners, spray contractors, and other stakeholders on the system network, to request and receive services supported by said system network. Each mobile computing system has a display screen supporting: messaging services; display of maps indicating where wild fires have been identified and mapped, tracked and ranked in terms of risk to the user and GPS-specified property; and scheduling of spray task to be performed, and recording tasks that been completed, and which are in progress, on the GPS tracking and mapping wild fire defense system network.

A system and method are disclosed that allow for early detection and management of wildfires. According to various aspects and embodiments of the invention the system and method rapidly and economically detect and help manage and contain, control, suppress the progress of wildfires.

There is provided networks, systems and displays for providing derived data and predictive information for use in emergencies; and in particular for use in wildfire emergencies. More particularly, there is provided systems, equipment and networks for the monitoring and collecting of raw data regarding fire emergencies, both real time and historic. In embodiments, this raw data is then analyzed to provide derived data, predictive data, virtual data, and combinations and variations of this data, which depending upon the nature of this data may be packaged, distributed, displayed and used in various setting and applications to mitigate, avoid and manage the emergency, including a wildfire emergency. In an embodiment the external fire management system has a control system that has hydration plan control commands.

Tools for fire monitoring are presented. One method includes an operation for accessing values of features for monitoring a fire in a region. The features include satellite images at a first resolution, vegetation information, and weather data. Further, each satellite image includes first cells associated with the geographical region and the first resolution defines a first size of each first cell. The method further includes generating a map of the geographical region comprising a plurality of second cells having a second size, which is smaller than the first size. Additionally, the method includes operations for estimating, using a machine-learning model, probability values for the second cells in the map based on the features, each probability value indicating if the second cell contains an active fire, and for updating the map based on the probability values for the second cells. The map is presented in a user interface.

Environmentally-clean aqueous-based fire inhibitor biochemical compositions in liquid phase that can be atomized and sprayed, over a broad ambient working temperature range, as a fine mist over ground surfaces, native ground fuel, living plants, trees and shrubs and when dried forming a durable fire protective coatings having improved surface coverage, and being an effective proactive wildfire inhibitor. These environmentally-clean aqueous-based fire inhibitor biochemical compositions can also be applied to wood products, and wood-framed and mass-timber buildings, decks and anything of a combustible nature, to provide proactive wildfire protection without compromising wood-fiber strength or producing volatile organic components (VOCs).
