Step 01 / 04Challenge

Wildfires in Sumatra and Kalimantan are an annual phenomenon that is hard to resolve.

Forest and land fires in Sumatra and Kalimantan recur every year. Vast coverage areas, multi-stakeholder coordination, and limited field visibility make response complex and hard to execute consistently.

A system is needed that can detect high-risk locations earlier, monitor hotspots in real time, connect command centers with field personnel, and support operational needs in dynamic terrain.

Step 02 / 04Quantum Solution

Technology that combines AI, satellite imagery, and field operations.

Quantum designed a wildfire response solution integrating AI, AI-based satellite imagery, and a unified operations system. The platform detects wildfire-prone locations with AI, helps stakeholders see the situation in real time, and follow through on field incidents within one digital ecosystem.

Key capabilities

✓AI detection of wildfire-prone locations.
✓Hotspot detection and monitoring based on AI and satellite imagery.
✓Situation visibility across Sumatra and Kalimantan.
✓Data integration to support fast operational decisions.
✓Command center foundation for multi-stakeholder coordination.

Step 03 / 04Approach

Three core focuses: monitoring, communication, and logistics.

The implementation approach focused on three operational pillars of wildfire response so every layer—from high-risk location detection to field action—stays connected.

Monitoring: related stakeholders get systems to monitor hotspots directly and see AI-detected high-risk locations. Communication: the command center can communicate directly with field members during wildfire response. Logistics: every response incurs field operating costs—the system provides a flow so logistics needs can be requested and disbursed by users.

Key capabilities

✓Monitoring — track hotspots and AI high-risk locations in real time for related stakeholders.
✓Communication — command center connected directly with field personnel.
✓Logistics — request and disbursement system for wildfire response operating costs.
