Karen introduces Earth Fire’s ambitious mission to revolutionize fire monitoring through a new constellation of satellites. As a nonprofit organization, they are dedicated to providing global fire capability and ensuring data equity for fire agencies around the world. The satellites, designed for real-time fire monitoring, offer a high-resolution pixel size of 80 meters with updates every 20 minutes, allowing agencies to gain situational awareness and make informed decisions.
