The ADELIE system (Alert, Detection and Localization of Fires) is a forest fire monitoring system that detects the presence of smoke in the natural environment thanks to a unique principle of image capture and processing. This automatic forest fire detection system allows, from one or more high points and up to the horizon, day and night and on 360 degrees, the monitoring, detection and localization of fire starts.
Each site is equipped with a camera system associated with a processing unit housing image processing algorithms based on artificial intelligence. The information, images and detections made are transmitted instantly to the fire control centre or to the fire control centre, where the operators benefit from a real-time visualisation of the event, automatic localisation of the start of the fire and "augmented reality" functionalities allowing them to immediately understand the context, the extent, the evolution and the stakes of the event. The cameras installed on the watchtower allow a complete follow-up of the fire, from detection to extinction. The ADELIE forest fire monitoring system can also integrate meteorological data if the site where it is installed is equipped with a weather station.
Finally, the ADELIE system also allows for feedback: the system can store the images captured as well as the videos of the camera used to detect the incident. ADELIE can also produce statistics on which the intervention forces can base themselves afterwards.
