Ibadan, 25 October 2025. – TracPlus and OroraTech have announced a two-way data integration that brings aircraft tracking and aircraft drop intelligence together with space-based perimeter insights in real time so fire leaders can act with confidence when minutes matter.
With the planet enduring worsening wildfires, including four of the five worst years for global forest fires occurring since 2020, the two wildfire technology leaders are combining to speed up on-the-ground decision-making.
Under the partnership, TracPlus’ live aircraft tracking and drop event data will be available inside OroraTech’s Wildfire Solution platform, while OroraTech’s current fire perimeter intelligence will be visualized within the TracPlus platform.
This first-of-its-kind linkage gives users of either system a shared operational picture of where the fire is and where drops have actually occurred, as a result, reducing delays and guesswork. Furthermore, TracPlus will integrate its drop data into OroraTech’s Fire Spread prediction modelling, allowing firefighters to see the impact of their efforts on fire behavior.
“Wildfires evolve by the minute,” explained John O’Hara, CEO, TracPlus. “By pairing verified drop intelligence and live aircraft movement with OroraTech’s satellite-derived perimeters, incident leaders see two essential facts at once: where the fire is and where suppression has actually occurred, so they can direct the next action with confidence.”
Dr. Martin Langer, CEO & CTO, OroraTech also pointed out, “With TracPlus data alongside our wildfire situational awareness platform, responders don’t just see what the fire is doing; they see why. Linking confirmed drops and air operations to real-time wildfire intelligence reveals how interventions are shaping fire behavior and supports faster, more confident decisions.”
Initial capabilities will subsequently roll out to joint customers across priority regions in line with local fire seasons. Furthermore, both companies remain committed to customer consent, secure data stewardship, and interoperability with agency systems.
