In 2020, the forest areas in Dali Prefecture, Yunnan Province, were reported to have reached 1.855 million hectares, ranking among the top in the country. In addition to absorbing carbon dioxide, conserving water sources, and maintaining water and soil, these ancient forests also shelter a large number of rare wild animals and plants. These natural wonders are at risk if a forest fire breaks out, causing drastic damages and endangering inhabitants of the forest.
Since 2020, Dahua has been assisting Dali Prefecture in building front-end systems and installing wireless transmission systems in key protected zones as well as areas prone to forest fires. More than 500 cases of illegal use of fire in the wild and seven cases of forest fires have been detected since then.
