New Delhi: In the middle of the Covid-19 pandemic, with the nations galvanizing most of their resources towards him, forest fires also brought destruction to many countries on the continent continent, especially the US.
The average forest fires have burned 8.8 million hectares in the US from 2017 to 2020, according to data published by the National Interagency Coordination Center, the agency that oversees all coordination activities between states throughout the United States.
The destruction of this year is also very large.
Dixie fire in northern California has developed into the second largest fire in the history of the country.
The Wildfires in Italy, Greece and Turkey have burned 568,000 hectares this year, according to data from NASA.
And 343 carbon bank megatons have been released in the environment due to forest fires, according to the report from The Guardian.
Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis must apologize on Monday because of a failure to handle the fire of a great forest that had been burned throughout Greece.

KSI Data Sciences is a company that has developed technology that allows direct recording delivery collected by drones and other devices from remote areas.
“We always work on the hypothesis that the only value for drones is truly for the data they produce,” said Jon Gaster, founder of the KSI data science, in the interaction with Timesofindia.com.
The idea behind this effort allows effective and collaborative decision making in difficulties, something that can be very helpful in emergencies such as fire.
So the company has built a technology called Mission Keeper, can be accessed either on mobile and desktop, which allows streaming directly from the drone recording through the application.
Videos are needed from the Drone Controller and use Cloud storage and then stream for wider access.
The distinguishing feature is that there is no limit on the number of users who can watch or drain this video.
“You might have an incident where suddenly I need to invite people from various agents to see what’s happening.
Wildfire is a perfect example.
And therefore you can’t get at the point where it is well, because of low latency, you only can support five users, “Gaster said.
Gaster, a graduate of the London School of Economics, emerged with the idea for KSI while working with the beginning of the beginning of 200 who worked with the US government on video recordings from drones in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Learning from the challenges faced during this task, Gaster established KSI in 2015 to take advantage of the market.
This application allows users to view multiple videos, chat features, filing options for a set of videos and data for future use.
The company in talks with the Los Angeles Fire Department for the use of technology.
The fire department, New York also tested the KSI system.
This is also part of the first net – a national network built for the first American respondent and also plans to start working in Canada and Germany.
While the company’s hardware solutions have the potential to help in fires, the company’s operations are not limited to it, with the use of agriculture to location inspections.
