Turkey is facing one of its most destructive wildfire seasons in history—with provinces like İzmir, Bursa, Karabük, and Hatay ravaged by flames. But this time, artificial intelligence is part of the frontline defense.
In this episode of AI-Ignited, host Elif Baser speaks with Aden Emre Ünal to unpack how Türkiye is using AI to detect, predict, and fight wildfires in real time. From smart towers and drones scanning the skies to a nationally awarded Fire Decision Support System guiding firefighting strategies, this isn’t the future—it’s happening now.
Learn how tech giants like Firefly Aerospace, IBM, and Palantir are accelerating emergency response times, and how cutting-edge research from arXiv and Oxford Insights is helping Turkey lead the Mediterranean in climate-tech innovation.
