This week alone: Wildfires shut down Marseille’s airport, threatened 3,000 ha in Catalonia, and swept by means of components of Jap Germany — pressing reminders of a warmer, drier Europe.
Each minute shaved off detection time issues.
Fly to Shield. That’s the mission behind Odonata’s Pantala drone – a hydrogen-powered, lift-&-cruise
UAV constructed for the first-spark second.
With as much as 33 hours of flight time (or 3,600 km on a single fill), Pantala is designed to detect what floor crews can’t.
What makes it wildfire-ready?
Sensible sensors – infrared thermal cameras, HD optics, and onboard smoke detectors mix to identify flare-ups earlier than they develop.
Huge protection – surveys 2,000 ha per hour, as much as 60,000 ha per mission, sending geolocated alerts straight to command facilities.
Hydrogen propulsion – zero-emission energy with automated floor stations that refuel and relaunch for steady 24/7 operation.
Collectively, it kinds a digital hearth tower community — at all times flying, at all times watching.
For hearth crews in Jap Germany, Marseille, Crete or California, it means earlier insights, sooner response, and motion earlier than a spark turns into a blaze.
Should you work in local weather resilience, emergency response, or forest administration, let’s discuss.
Odonata is searching for pilot companions to deploy Pantala and fly to guard our forests and communities.
