OzHazard is a technology demonstrator built by Haizea Analytics to showcase what becomes possible when a live geospatial data platform is combined with an autonomous reasoning agent.
It continuously monitors Australia for wildfire activity, correlating satellite detections with environmental context to form situational assessments without human supervision.
Terrakio is Haizea's geospatial platform for serving live raster data. It exposes a uniform query API over any gridded dataset, which the agent uses to pull real-time environmental context at each detection site.
NASA FIRMS hotspots (VIIRS and MODIS), Himawari-8 satellite imagery, BOM weather, and dry-lightning feeds. All polled continuously and reasoned over transparently.
For every new detection cluster, the agent queries Terrakio for three layers that materially shape fire behaviour:
These values are attached to each incident and fed into the live risk assessment so severity ratings reflect actual on-ground context, not just thermal intensity.
OzHazard's design is inspired by Signet, whose original agent framing showed what autonomous situational awareness could look like. OzHazard applies that pattern to Australian bushfire monitoring on top of Haizea's data stack.
For active warnings and emergency information, refer to the relevant state fire agency.
AI-generated assessments may contain errors. Satellite data may be delayed or incomplete.
