Ignis Technologies
Ignis Technologies has developed a GPS Mapping App specifically for wildland firefighters. Created by a team of firefighters out of a personal need for more practical systems to communicate, distribute, and view intelligence on wildland fires, our mission is to provide critical technology that reduces the loss of lives, properties, and natural habitats due to wildfires. As fires in the United States become increasingly severe, deadly, and difficult to manage, firefighters and their organizations require new tools to remain effective and safe. Our mobile and web applications enhance situational awareness, facilitate communication in rapidly evolving environments, and offer dynamic data for better wildfire management. Our platform is interoperable between federal, state, and local agencies, including offline data sharing and dynamic mapping capabilities, allowing firefighters to overlay multiple maps, visualize topography, and access weather forecasts directly from their devices.
