GeoDigital has provided solutions to the fire mapping industry for over two decades. We provide innovative solutions that support the planning and tactics of fire suppression.  

With specialist and resources deployed across the USA & Canada, GeoDigital offers timely support and custom-configured fire mapping and infrared services, proven to be extremely effective in accurately identifying critical hot spots, and providing crucial terrain & related information to on-scene commanders.

GeoDigital's original "Fire Mousetrap System" was used by Era Aviation, Inc., to support both the USDA Forest Service and the California Department of Forestry  in fighting numerous large wildfires, including the costly and destructive Topanga Canyon and Santa Barbara fires.

Our new technologies can adapt to meet the specific needs of the Incident Commander, providing data acquisition, geo-referenced Infrared and Daylight Digital Imagery, LiDAR Terrain Modeling, and more. Call us to discuss your needs.
