Statewide, centralised fire detection platform across multiple agencies will deliver broad community and economic benefit
Sustainable Timber Tasmania has received a $1.44 million grant to lead the creation of a Tasmanian Integrated Fire Camera Network (TIFCN), in collaboration with the Tasmania Fire Service and the Tasmania Parks and Wildlife Service, with Indicium Dynamics as delivery partner.
When completed, the network is expected to become Australia’s largest integrated bushfire detection camera system.
The project is funded by the Australian and Tasmanian governments through Round Three of the $1 billion Disaster Ready Fund (DRF), administered by the National Emergency Management Agency (NEMA), as part of the commitment to reduce disaster risk and build resilience nationwide.
