A Platform for All Disasters

PRIVATE AND PUBLIC PARTNERSHIPS
We are shaping the future of private and public partnerships
ALERTWest represents a unique partnership between private companies and public agencies. We leverage partnerships between universities, infrastructure companies, organizations, and first responders to create a network of cameras. ALERTWest then provides a situational awareness platform to everyone, including the public, to monitor, respond to, and recover from disasters.
SITUATIONAL AWARENESS DURING DIASTERS
FOR
FIRST RESPONDERS

The ALERTWest system provides enhanced situational awareness to fire responders when minutes matter. Know what you are responding to before you get there with live camera feeds, from multiple angles.

UTILITIES
Infrastructure covers many different facets of our daily lives. From aviation, to telecommunications, to bridges, to power and energy, to railways and roadways, to water and waste management, to recreation, the infrastructure that keeps our nation going is impacted by disasters every day. The ALERTWest system can help build situational awareness around all disasters for these organizations and agencies.
FOR
LAND STEWARDS
As stewards of the land, it is crucial to recognize that private land holdings make up sixty percent of land ownership in the United States. At ALERTWest, we understand the importance of safeguarding our precious resources, and our platform is designed to provide awareness and support around disasters.
AI DETECTION
AI
WILDFIRE DETECTION
At ALERTWest, we are proud to offer advanced artificial intelligence (AI) technology that leverages the power of our system to detect potential fire starts during the day or night. Our system promptly alerts emergency responders, providing them with the location of the likely wildfire. This early warning system plays a crucial role in enabling emergency responders to take immediate action, effectively containing the fire before it has a chance to spread. By doing so, we can help prevent extensive damage and facilitate a faster recovery process.
