The application for the patent was published on September 11, 2026, under issue no. 37/2026.
Abstract: A system (102) and a method (300) for monitoring wildfire risk in a monitored zone are disclosed. The system (102) includes a plurality of sensors (104) including an electromagnetic field sensor (104A) and an air ionization sensor (104B), a suppression unit (110), a communication unit (112), and a control unit (106) communicably coupled thereto. The control unit (106) receives the sensor data, detects an anomaly indicative of a pre-ignition condition, analyzes historical data associated with the anomaly, determines a fire risk score, classifies the monitored zone into a risk category based on the fire risk score, triggers the suppression unit (110) to dispense a fire suppressant, and generates a corresponding alert for transmission through the communication unit (112), enabling a timely intervention prior to a visible ignition of the wildfire.
