What is Silvanet?

Silvanet is Dryad’s end-to-end solution for ultra-early wildfire detection and forest monitoring. It’s a comprehensive IoT-based ecosystem designed to help prevent the devastating impact of wildfires by combining cutting-edge hardware and software.

Silvanet enables forest owners, municipalities, and environmental organizations to monitor large forest areas in real time using a network of interconnected devices.

Key Components of Silvanet:

• Silvanet Wildfire Sensors
  Low-power gas sensors that detect early signs of smoldering fires (e.g., hydrogen, carbon monoxide, temperature, humidity).
• Silvanet Mesh Gateways
  Devices that relay data wirelessly across large areas using a LoRa® mesh network, bridging communication between sensors and the Border Gateway.
• Silvanet Border Gateway
  Collects data from Mesh Gateways and sensors and transmits it to the cloud via LTE-M, NB-IoT, or Ethernet.
• Silvanet Cloud Platform
  A secure web-based platform for real-time data visualization, alerts, device management, and API access.
• Silvanet Deployment App
  A mobile app for on-site deployment, device registration, and installation guidance.

Why Silvanet?

• Scalable across vast forests and national parks.
• Reliable, even in remote areas with no cellular connectivity.
• Sustainable, with solar-powered devices and low environmental footprint.
• Smart alerting, using multi-sensor logic and customizable thresholds.
• API access for integration with dashboards and third-party systems.

Use Cases

• Early wildfire detection and mitigation.
• Environmental monitoring (temperature, humidity, air pressure).
• Forest asset protection.
• Public safety and emergency preparedness.
