From satellite signals to verified prevention actions.
ZionDome helps municipalities and public agencies scale wildfire prevention by converting satellite and aerial imagery into actionable draft cases — with human verification and warnings-first workflows.
This is not “AI fines.” It’s a prevention and verification system designed for legal defensibility and measurable outcomes.
The challenge
Municipal teams are expected to reduce wildfire risk across thousands of parcels with limited staff and time. Traditional approaches are reactive, manual, and difficult to track at scale.
ZionDome changes this by prioritizing inspections, standardizing documentation, and creating a repeatable evidence loop.
How it works
1) Detect & Flag
AI analyzes satellite/aerial imagery and identifies patterns linked to elevated ignition risk and policy violations (fuel build-up, vegetation encroachment, exposure pathways).
2) Draft Case File
For each flagged location, the platform builds a structured draft case:
- Location and map context
- Probable parcel/address suggestion
- Evidence snapshots with timestamps
- Confidence score and severity category
3) Municipal Verification (Humans in the loop)
Municipal teams review and validate each case:
- Confirm or correct parcel/address
- Classify severity and priority
- Assign follow-up actions
- Start with education and warnings
4) Warnings First, Due Process Always
Most cases begin with a warning and a clear remediation deadline. Enforcement escalates only when issues remain unresolved or are repeat offenses — following standard municipal procedures.
5) Outcomes & Reporting
Each case is tracked through resolution:
- Fixed / verified
- Pending / scheduled
- Contested / reviewed
- Escalated / enforced
Outcomes feed back into program reporting and policy refinement.
What municipalities get
Operational benefits
- Prioritized workload and faster inspection targeting
- Standardized evidence collection and audit trails
- Clear accountability: who verified what, when, and why
- Better public communication through consistent notices and timelines
Program outcomes
- Scalable prevention across thousands of parcels
- Earlier intervention before extreme conditions
- Measurable improvements and clear dashboards for leadership
Why this is legally defensible
- Human verification is required before enforcement
- Evidence is time-stamped and traceable
- Decisions are logged (review steps, rationale, and outcomes)
- Governance supports authorized roles and access controls
Typical use cases
- WUI defensible-space programs
- Parcel-level hazard reduction compliance
- Targeted outreach and education campaigns
- Post-event assessment and recovery documentation
- High-risk zone prioritization ahead of red-flag days
Pilot program (recommended)
Launch a 30–60 day pilot
- One municipality or a defined high-risk zone
- Baseline mapping + initial case workflow setup
- Training for reviewers/inspectors
- First set of cases delivered with verification and reporting
- A dashboard that leadership can use immediately
Frequently asked questions
Does ZionDome replace municipal decision-making?
No. The platform drafts cases and prioritizes review. Municipal teams validate and decide.
Is this an enforcement system?
It’s a prevention and verification workflow. Warnings first; fines only when unresolved or repeated, according to your policies.
Can this integrate with our existing systems?
Yes. Pilots can start standalone, then connect to existing reporting or case-management workflows as needed.
