Why Florida Timber Owners Need Fire Monitoring

Florida's timber industry is worth billions, with millions of acres of pine plantations and natural longleaf forests. But Florida also leads the nation in wildfire activity — driven by lightning, heat, and dry conditions during winter and spring drought. Most landowners live out of state and never see a fire coming.

Florida Wildfire Risk Factors

TimberSentry was built for absentee owners and resident landowners alike. For less than the price of a professional forestry consultation, your stand gets continuous 24/7 satellite monitoring.

Three Steps to 24/7 Fire Watch

01

Draw Your Florida Timber Stand

Draw your boundary on our interactive map or upload a KMZ/KML file. Acreage is calculated automatically. Takes about 60 seconds.

02

Satellites Watch 24/7

GOES and VIIRS satellite sensors scan your land every 5 minutes. Every detection runs through a 4-level confirmation pipeline to eliminate false alarms from heat islands and agricultural burning common in Florida.

03

Get Alerted by Email

When a confirmed fire is detected near your land, you receive a plain-English email: distance in miles, fire intensity, and clear location description. No jargon, no confusion.

Common Questions from Florida Landowners

Does TimberSentry work for pine plantations in Florida?

Yes. Loblolly, longleaf, slash pine, and mixed hardwood — all forest types are monitored. Just draw your boundary and you're watched 24/7.

How quickly will I get a fire alert?

From satellite scan to email alert, typical latency is under 10 minutes. Emergency-level fires bypass quiet-hour rules and alert immediately.

Does it work for small timber tracts in Florida?

Yes. The free plan covers up to 5 acres. The Individual plan covers up to 500 acres for $9.99/month — suitable for most private Florida timber owners.

What about prescribed burns?

TimberSentry flags all fire clusters — prescribed burns and wildfires both. You get an alert either way, which lets you verify what's burning. Configure quiet hours during burn seasons.

Is there a contract?

No. Month-to-month only. Cancel anytime.
