Genesis Signs LOI to Perform Wildfire Analysis in Harrison Hot Springs, BC
News Release – Kelowna, British Columbia – April 11, 2024, Genesis AI Corp. (the “Company”) (CSE: AIG OTC: AIGFF) is pleased to announce the signing of a Letter of Intent to provide wildfire mitigation risk assessments at Cogburn Creek, BC for a proposed 300 unit development and existing recreational operation.
The first phase of analysis will commence next week, using a mix of on site acquired data from
drone based LiDAR and multispectral imaging and remotely acquired satellite data from various
online repositories. The expected outcome of the analysis is a detailed report that outlines the
risk of wildfire, the probable path the wildfire will take, and the cost to perform “FireSmart”
protection techniques to build resilience against wildfire. The project involves the collection of
900 hectares (2,224 acres) of high-resolution data that will be used as an ai training model for
other projects.
Since the site is adjacent to a well-known, busy forestry recreation site (Cogburn Beach)
maintained by the Province of British Columbia – Ministry of Forests, the analysis will be
provided to demonstrate the cost of creating a non-combustable zone, thinning and pruning of
existing forest, and removal of coarse woody debris on the forest floor.
CEO Devinder Randhawa says, “we are pleased to be moving ahead with our first wildfire project, using this as a template for other communities across North America. As a long-term resident of Kelowna, I have witnessed firsthand the devastation caused by the wildfires last year and in 2003. We are working to help communities quantify the cost of resilience and giving actionable intelligence to those affected.”
Project Director Brent Tolmie says, “we will be reaching out to every high-risk community across British Columbia to start with, demonstrating our unique service that not only provides analysis of the risk, but also quantifies the cost of treating areas. Our mid term plan is to work to crowd source risk information and develop a contractor portal where we not only define cost but also help communities get this work done.”
