Silvanet Sensor Network

The forest reports back before there's a fire to see.

A solar-powered mesh of environmental sensors watches for wildfire at the moment of ignition not the moment of smoke and relays it over satellite from places no cell tower reaches.

Silvanet is a wireless, solar-powered sensor network communicating over LoRaWAN, the open standard for long-range low-power IoT. A patented distributed architecture lets it deploy at scale in forests and rural terrain with no existing network coverage then process what it senses with cloud-based analytics for detection, fire behavior modeling, and alerting.

About Silva​net

From reacting to fire, to catching it at ignition
LoRaWAN

Open-standard long-range radio

10–15 yrs

Maintenance-free operation

Off-grid

Solar powered, no network required

The sensor

One node, reading five signals of ignition

Each Silvanet unit senses gas, particulate, and thermal indicators of a fire's earliest minutes then runs that reading through onboard edge AI before it ever leaves the forest.

01

Solar with supercapacitor storage

Removes the fire risk that comes with lithium battery packs in the field.

02

Gas and particulate sensing

Detects CO, H2, and VOCs alongside real-time PM2.5, with mass concentration for PM1 and PM10, read by laser.

03

Edge AI processing

Classifies a reading on the sensor itself before it's ever transmitted.

04

Kineis satellite uplink

One-way uplink connectivity that reaches sites with no cellular or terrestrial network.

05

Built for the forest, not the lab

Weather-resistant housing, NFC support for field servicing, 10–15 years of maintenance-free operation.

Coverage

A single sensor becomes a shield

No individual sensor protects a community on its own the network does. Density is what turns detection into reliable, all-conditions coverage.

Real-world application

Protecting communities like Cordillera, Colorado

Whole ecosystems, not just properties

Forward-thinking communities are deploying Silvanet across entire forested landscapes rather than around individual structures extending protection to the terrain itself.
  • Sensors deployed across the forested landscape, not just property lines
  • Detection happens at the earliest stage of ignition
  • Response teams gain critical time to act before a fire spreads
