Wildfire forest

Camera masts on the ridges, a weather station in the stand and a private cell: the red ground is what the ridge camera can see.

Tour transcript

  1. A forested slope on real terrain, with two camera masts on the ridges.
  2. Each mast carries a camera; two bearings fix a smoke column.
  3. Red ground is where smoke 10 m above the trees is in the ridge camera’s line of sight.
  4. The weather station feeds the fire-weather indices.
