Build your own FireAlert device and dashboard from our open source repositories.
At IRNAS, we believe in open source. We encourage innovators, researchers, and communities to join the FireAlert open source ecosystem and build their own wildfire detection devices and monitoring dashboards from our publicly available repositories.
All repositories are released under open source licenses, enabling you to study, modify, and deploy the technology for your own wildfire monitoring needs.
Everything you need to build your own FireAlert system.
