Drones for better wildfire management

Bos is a pre-seed aerospace startup, dedicated to combating the growing global wildfire crisis.

Wildfires: A Flaring Global Crisis

Escalating Threat

Wildfires are becoming more frequent and severe globally, endangering lives, property, and ecosystems. In 2023, wildfires destroyed nearly 12 million hectares worldwide.

120 000 sq. km

Staggering Costs

In the US alone, climate-exacerbated wildfires cost up to $893 billion annually in damages and related expenses.

$893 Billion p.a.

Vicious Cycle

In 2023, global wildfires released 2,170 megatonnes of carbon emissions. Exacerbating climate change and leading to worse wildfires in a devastating feedback loop.

2,170 Mt CO2

Our Vision

The application of advanced technologies and novel aerospace vehicles to combat the growing wildfire crisis.

Our Solutions

Our integrated systems follow the OODA loop methodology to ensure rapid and effective response to wildfire threats.

Observe

High-altitude Platform Station (HAPS)

This UAV serves as the primary observation asset, scanning large areas from high altitudes to detect signs of wildfires early on. It provides the initial data needed for monitoring and situational assessment over a broad region

Orient

Man Launched Fixed Wing UAV

Deployed for detailed situational awareness, this UAV gathers precise information about the fire’s dynamics, terrain condition, and vegetation, aiding in understanding the wildfire on a granular level.

Decide

Command, Control, and Communication (C3) Platform

Integrating data from the HAPS and fixed-wing UAV, the C3 platform supports strategic decision-making, focusing firefighting efforts and resource allocation effectively.

Act

Heavy Lift VTOL

Executing decisions made by the C3 platform, this UAV performs aerial firefighting operations, dropping water or retardants on targeted areas, crucial for combating the fire in challenging terrains.
