California is using AI enabled cameras to detect wildfires before the 911 wildfire calls begin. California uses a system of cameras to monitor backcountry land 24 hours a day. The cameras are part of an “interlinked technology network that is redefining the scope of fire prediction, prevention and response.” According to Science.org wildfires have tripled in frequency and are 4 times the size.
