YOUR SURROUNDINGS, IN CONTEXT

A clearer picture of nearby fire activity.

Monitor your places

Keep an eye on the places that matter. Set a monitoring area around your home, a holiday property or another named location.

Connect the observations

See related satellite detections brought together into incidents, with their contributing sources preserved.

Make updates useful

Bring maps, sensors and new-incident events into Home Assistant. Choose the notifications and automations that work for you.

CONNECTED TO YOUR HOME

From orbit to your dashboard.

IGNIS turns satellite observations into location-aware incidents, then makes that context available in Home Assistant.

  • Incidents within your monitored area
  • Observation times and contributing sources
  • Events for your own notifications and automations

HOW IT WORKS

Separate observations. One useful picture.

A transparent path from the satellite source to the places you follow.

01

Observe

Geographically relevant sources supply timestamped satellite detections.

02

Connect

IGNIS filters and groups related detections, retaining the evidence behind each incident.

03

Follow

Track nearby activity on your map and use Home Assistant events to trigger updates.

DATA WITH CONTEXT

Know your sources. Understand your coverage.

Sources are assigned to monitored locations according to their geographic coverage and your configured credentials.

Source details

Coverage is source-dependent. Product cadence is not a guaranteed alert time: clouds, overpasses, publication delays and outages affect the observations you receive.

Fire observations and fire risk are different.

Observations indicate detected thermal activity. Fire-risk forecasts describe conditions that favour fire. IGNIS currently also supports the European FRMv3 forecast; that is not a promise of worldwide fire-risk coverage.

Understand the difference

THE TERRALYRA PROJECT

Earth observations. Everyday context.

TerraLyra explores how environmental observations can become useful in everyday tools. IGNIS is its wildfire-focused Home Assistant integration, built openly with visible source data and an evolving roadmap.
