THE CHALLENGE

The City of Fort Collins initially selected Sensera’s solutions to provide real-time views of parking conditions. However, little did they know that the rugged cameras that run off cloud based software would serve as watchful eyes on a quickly approaching natural disaster. During the Cameron Peak Fire in Larimer County, Sensera’s monitoring solution played a role in aiding the City of Fort Collins in assessing the fire’s impact and progression. The fire started in August 2020 and burned over 208,913 acres. It was the largest wildfire in Colorado’s recorded history. As the fire threatened natural areas and communities, including those monitored by the City of Fort Collins, the need for real-time imagery and situational awareness became important.
