 Taiga's Integrated FLIR System
Comprehensive information when you need it! With
limited resources to fight wild fires, you need to know which part of
the fire line needs to be watched, and which part needs to be hit
hard. That's where Taiga's innovative scanning and mapping system
helps you the most. By integrating our high resolution thermal
imager with our geo-referenced aerial imagery and mapping (GAIM) system,
we can quickly provide you with colour coded maps of where your fire
line is hottest and where hot spots are isolated, along with locations
of all hot spots and any threaten targets of value.
