Getting Started with Silvanet

Learn how to use the Dryad Silvanet Wildfire Detection System to detect within minutes smoldering fires in forests and send Fire Alerts to registered users.

The Silvanet System consists of a network of Silvanet Sensors which are permanently attached to trees about 3 meters above the forest floor. Each sensor sends periodic messages about the environmental to the Silvanet Cloud via an in-forest Mesh network consisting of Silvanet Mesh Gateways and Silvanet Border Gateways.

If any sensor detects a smoldering fire, automated notifications are immediately sent via the Mesh network and Internet to registered users. They immediately receive an email containing GPS coordinates of the sensor(s) that detected the fire.
