regions of Russia, though it could be
applied in any part of the world. In 2015

4. Monitoring methods comparison
The easiest way.
Low one-off costs if
existing towers are
using.
Human factor – hard
to stay concentrated
for long time. Needs a
lot of people for
monitoring big areas.
Good for monitoring
distant areas. Good
fire coordinates
precision.
Good for monitoring
distant areas, that
can`t be reached the
other way.
Expensive. Can`t be
used continuously.
Takes long time to
educate pilots.
Data updates rarely
(several times a day).
Fire must be big
enough to be detected.
Unable to monitor
areas under clouds.
Traditional Aircraft Satellite Lesnoy Dozor
Automatic monitoring.
Real-time data streaming.
Up to 30 cameras per one
operator.
Coordinates calculation.
A lot cheaper than aircraft
monitoring.
Third-party sources data
integration, including satellite,
weather, etc.
Unlimited number of users.
Needs electricity and internet
connection on towers.
Less precise coordinates
calculation than an aircraft
gives.

IN RUSSIA:
About 1500 About 150
IN THE WORLD: 3 – 4 times bigger
Forest fires losses $ 1.8 billion/year
Quantity of monitoring points 30 000
Maintenance of the system $ 120 million/year
Installation of the system 500 million/year
PREDICTION: • Reducing the market volume of traditional monitoring (classic terrestrial, air).
• Increase of the number of potential monitoring points, ubiquity of the Internet that
helps to spread the system.
• Reduction of the price for hardware part of the system that helps to reduce overall costs.
• Changes in the structure of forest usage: from government owners to private tenants.
• Consequently the growth of forest fires due to the collapse of the firefighting
infrastructure is expected.
• Increased competition due to low entry barrier.
