"Water is a miracle, an asset, and in an instant, can be a force of destruction or life giving. Our challenge as humans is to use our knowledge and capacities to protect, share, and celebrate water as the unique resource that allows us to inhabit this planet," Woolpert Senior Strategic Consultant Dave Wegner said. "Global and national security are dependent on water and how we work with it and share it for the collective good of our world’s populations and environment." From analyzing and mapping to sanitizing and managing, today, we'd like to recognize all of the water, maritime, and geospatial professionals around the world for their vital work and commitment to supporting one of our planet's most delicate and important resources. #WorldWaterDay #waterquality #watersolutions

🎯 Evolution in Wildfire Detection: SenseNet's FireWard Amazed Fire Professionals Again in Predator Ridge Demo On January 22nd, at Predator Ridge, close to Ellison Provincial Park, BC, #SenseNet once again demonstrated its cutting-edge #wildfiredetection technology, #FireWard, achieving detection in less than a minute under extreme conditions. Earning acclaim from participating fire professionals: "SenseNet is Indeed Redefining What's Possible in Wildfire Detection". ✅ A key highlight of this demo was the performance of SenseNet's FireWard technology in harsh #climate conditions. With 90% humidity, dense fog, and extremely cold temperatures, FireWard detected the test fires in just under one minute - thanks to its patented and highly accurate sensing and communication technology. ✅ Moreover, SenseNet demonstrated its #gamechanging capability that sets FireWard apart on the #global stage. The FireWard technology detected new fires even amidst a large, existing fire with smoky conditions. This unique ability to detect new fires in smoke-filled environments positions SenseNet as the only technology in the world capable of such precision and effectiveness under these challenging circumstances. We extend our deepest gratitude to the fire professionals, local authorities, and the community in the City of #Vernon for their unwavering support. Your trust in SenseNet empowers us to continue demonstrating groundbreaking solutions for wildfire #detection and #prevention. Join SenseNet in celebrating this milestone and in the continued journey towards a safer, more #secureworld. 🔥 Natural Resources Canada | Ressources naturelles Canada Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada Innovate BC National Research Council Canada / Conseil national de recherches Canada Environment and Climate Change Canada #SenseNet #vernonbc #wildfiredetection #wildfires #wildfireprevention #governmentofcanada #ciffc #climatechange #safty #innovation #environmentalawareness

I was pleased to make a presentation on the #ICUD_Conference. Blue and Green Infrastructure (#BGI) facilities were started to be introduced for flood mitigation. However, we know that #BGI generates multiple benefits for the society. In the presentation I have discussed the questions: who are stakeholders for BGI projects, who pays and who has benefits from BGI projects, how can we monetize, evaluate and compare social, economic and environmental benefits, what are the priority benefits for various stakeholders, what is important to consider in the decision-making process? Maybe in the future social and environmental benefits will be the key drivers for making our cities greener :) #ICUD #BGI #benefit #stormwater #DRIZZLE #DagNät
