Why Burn Programs Use DRYLINE

Real-time ground truth data for all of your prescriptions

Continuously monitor live and dead fuel moisture

Track critical fuel conditions in real time to identify burn windows with precision, rather than relying solely on weather forecasts or models.

Identify burn windows with confidence

Moisture data shows when fuels have dried sufficiently after rain or humidity events, supporting safe and effective prescribed fire operations.

Target units accurately

Pinpoint specific stands, compartments, or treatment units where fuels meet prescription, avoiding unnecessary delays or overly broad closures.

Document decisions for review and compliance

Timestamped, localized fuel moisture readings provide a defensible record for planning, documentation, and interagency coordination.

How It Works

From Deployment to Go/No-Go

Deploy in your units

Install dead and live fuel sensors in representative fuels across stands and treatment units.

Watch unit readiness

Solar-powered wireless gateways stream readings continuously, even in remote units, backhauled over cellular or satellite.

Burn and document

Timestamped readings before, during, and after the burn support after-action reviews and interagency coordination.
