📣 The summer period is often a good time to improve our tools, and the latest risk news sometimes brings us subjects of interest.

We have also recently developed a new method of processing open-source process using our ETL. Krawler for ingesting free data from the Fire Information for Resource Management System (FIRMS) from NASA. This system, particularly useful for fighting forest fires, uses satellite sensors to detect “hot spots” on the earth's surface. Using algorithms, it also provides various indicators linked to each hotspot, including Fire Radiative Power (FRP), which estimates the thermal power released.

The video below illustrates the spatio-temporal coupling of hotspots detected by FIRMS and current weather forecasts from Météo France (ARPEGE) at Kano. It provides a better understanding of the evolution of two major fires still in progress in Gironde, in particular the correlation between wind direction and intensity and those of the fires (the color of the representation of hot spots is linked to the FRP).

🌍 Climate change is undeniable. Rising atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases (GHGs) emitted by human activities are prompting companies to assess their emissions using carbon footprints. 

Carbon footprinting has thus become a major challenge, part of a genuine approach to reducing environmental impact. The aim is to know, from the results obtained, what action plan to define to limit GHG emissions and apply new measures within the company. 

📣 Today we'd like to share our latest certified balance sheet: Kalisio's activity generated the emission of 10tCO2e over the 2020/2021 period.

But what does it represent? 👀

• 18% less than a company of the same size in the same sector 
• Average 2.6 tCO2e per employee
• 477 trees to plant to contribute to Kalisio's carbon neutrality

✨ This calculation starts from an intention to work in a more eco-responsible way, but also to understand how to reduce environmental impact in a way that is optimal for the planet.  

Finally...

Together, let's fight climate change and preserve biodiversity! ✊🏼

🔎 You'll find here KALISIO's balance sheet in detail.

🚨 When “crisis management becomes more collaborative and virtual” thanks to Kalisio, Infoprotection writes about it! 🚨

Following the general observation of those involved in fire crisis management, it is important today to create a virtual space in order to alert, mobilize, distribute tasks and be able to monitor operations in a more collaborative manner.

🔥According to the research and security institute, 70% of companies affected by a major fire disappear in the months following the tragedy. This is why today alert systems, operations monitoring and even communication systems must be of a higher level of professionalism. 

We already provide our Akt'n'Map solution to SDIS 32 and 47, thanks to which emergency services receive notifications via their smartphones in order to inform and mobilize the competent teams as quickly as possible to deal with an emergency. situation.

Finally, Kalisio is currently extending its offering for communities or industry in order to take advantage of its expertise in the field of crisis management, but also in the face of meteorological or technological risks.
