Smart weather monitor for frontline vehicles
Effortless Data
No more asking your frontline firefighters to pull out their wind meters to report back.
Or having to manually enter data into predictive models after hard days.
AIRO is hands-free and syncs GPS-tagged wind, temp, and humidity data logged in real-time to your entire team and easily used in models.

This rugged, vehicle-mounted weather station continuously samples environmental data every 10 meters and transmits it in real time via a bluetooth-paired smartphone. The unit mounts securely via magnets (and can be removed easily before leaving the site) to any ground vehicle and operates hands-free, capturing wind and weather data that is instantly shared across team devices and stored in the cloud.
Recharge easily via USB Type A cable (24hrs battery life on ~3hrs charge).
We’re planning to use industrial magnets for mounting to the roof, though protypes are currently using heavy-duty suction and working great.

Teams
Easily set up teams for data to sync automatically to a single cloud database. Data will transfer and refresh regularly as it is sampled when signal is available to be available to all team members (or as defined by the team lead)
Data can also be shared cross-teams readily when collaborating in the field. Access can be easily scoped to the single event or geo-based.
In the Field
Data is sampled every 10m, but if critical shifts in conditions are detected data will be sent sooner.Firefighters receive real-time alerts for sudden wind shifts, helping them respond faster to emerging threats.
Live data is viewable on a shared map and synced automatically when signal is available.
Exporting Data for Predictive Models
Teams can export historical data seamlessly into wildfire prediction models for smarter decision-making. Data is readily exportable in customizable formats (CSV, JSON, GRIB, NetCDF, XLSX). Data can also be accessed through the API.
