OroraTech and SkyFi Partners to Expand US Access to Space-Based Fire Detection

SkyFi and OroraTech have entered into a strategic partnership to bring space-based thermal monitoring and wildfire detection to a broader US audience through SkyFi’s Earth intelligence platform. Founded in Munich, OroraTech specializes in real-time wildfire detection using nanosatellites equipped with thermal infrared cameras. Their thermal satellite constellation identifies heat anomalies directly from orbit, enabling fast wildfire alerts and giving emergency responders a critical head start. With this data, people can make faster, smarter decisions – mobilizing resources, assessing risks, and staying ahead of wildfire threats before they escalate.

This partnership marks a meaningful step into the US market for OroraTech – where demand for fast, reliable fire monitoring is growing. Once integrated, SkyFi’s platform will offer OroraTech visibility and access to a wide range of US and global users across industries and sectors, from emergency response teams to insurance and infrastructure.

SkyFi is already working with the City of Los Angeles to support post-fire imagery needs, a signal that the demand for fire-related monitoring is not just theoretical – it’s active and urgent.

OroraTech is the first of its kind on the SkyFi marketplace, bringing real-time thermal monitoring that’s essential for life-saving efforts and for building more resilient communities. But it’s not just about detection. Their data helps forecast and reduce risk across oil and gas, commodities trading, insurance, and infrastructure. This partnership expands access to critical fire intelligence and makes it easier than ever for users to get the insights they need, exactly when they need them.

Together, SkyFi and OroraTech are working on direct project collaboration and planning future integration to simplify how users interact with thermal fire monitoring data.

“Integrating OroraTech’s wildfire detection into the SkyFi ecosystem means more people can access critical thermal insights when and where they need them,” comments Steve Maisonet, Sales Director of OroraTech USA. “Together, we’re making advanced fire intelligence easier to use, so customers can act faster, reduce risk, and protect what matters most.”

This partnership gives users access to an early detection tool that can help solve one of the most persistent and destructive threats to land, life, and infrastructure. Wildfires are devastating. Solving for them starts with seeing them early.
