Machine learning helps orbital sensors catch blazes earlier.A new generation of satellites equipped with specialized thermal sensors and AI is making it possible to detect wildfires earlier — sometimes before ground-based systems can see them.On July 20, a satellite operated by German company OroraTech detected a hot spot near Aberdeen, California, marking the first detection of the Rock Fire. The blaze eventually grew beyond 12,000 acres and triggered evacuations and road closures.The detection was made by OroraTech’s OTC-P1 constellation...
