A New Era for Fire Response with WatchTowers Command

When bushfires and wildfires ignite, and conditions take a turn, every second counts. That’s why we developed WatchTowers Command - a real-time platform built to support the critical work of our first responders. Created by emergency services for emergency services, Command is all about bringing clarity, speed and control right when it’s needed most.

Why WatchTowers Command?

In recent years, the demands on our first responders have only grown. Fire seasons are longer, and each incident is more intense. The need for quick, coordinated responses has never been more important. That’s where WatchTowers Command steps in. By pulling together information from multiple sources, Command makes it easy for responders to assess situations, make decisions and take action - all from one simple platform.

Here’s how WatchTowers Command makes a difference:

  • Stay fully informed at all times: With Command’s central dashboard, you get a complete, live view of fire activity, weather changes and infrastructure impacts in your area. Its AI-enhanced smoke detection and automated systems identify and flag events the moment they happen, giving you an instant overview of conditions. It’s like having a digital command centre right at your fingertips.

  • Act faster with real-time alerts: Delays can cost precious time, so Command keeps teams connected 24/7. It actively monitors conditions and sends instant alerts as soon as a potential threat is detected, from fire activity to environmental changes. Command keeps you ahead of what’s happening, so you’re always ready to act quickly and confidently.

  • Immediate, clear views of critical areas: Command’s easy camera controls provide you with immediate, real-time views of high-risk zones and remote areas, making it simple to assess conditions on the ground. With these clear, direct visuals, you can spot risks and act fast, without unnecessary delays.

  • Seamless coordination across teams: During major incidents, coordinated response is essential. Command’s secure cross-agency sharing allows real-time updates to flow between interstate services, local governments and land managers. Every team stays aligned and ready to respond together.

WatchTowers Command was built for the people who protect our communities, turning essential information into real-time support that helps make fast, life-saving decisions. Whether you’re tracking a remote fire threat or managing resources across multiple incidents, Command provides a reliable, up-to-the-minute view of what’s happening.

We’re proud to see WatchTowers Command setting a new standard in bushfire and wildfire management.
