Get ready for a big step forward! OroraTech’s WFS interface just got a fresh new look: faster, more intuitive, and designed to streamline your wildfire monitoring workflow.
With its modern design and smarter features, the new interface gives you the clarity and confidence to stay ahead.
What’s New?
The new WFS interface was designed around three core principles: flexibility, clarity, and user empowerment. Here’s what you can look forward to:
🌓 Light & Dark Modes
Choose the mode that best fits your working environment and personal preference, ideal for long hours of monitoring.
🧩 Flexible Layout
Customize the layout to match your workflow. Resize panels, rearrange views, and make the interface truly yours.
🎯 Streamlined Navigation
Enjoy an elevated experience with simplified navigation, clearer visuals, and more intuitive interactions.
🔁 Easy Switching
You can switch back to the classic WFS interface anytime using the toggle switch in the top left.
Heads-up: the classic interface will be retired in October 2025.
🛰️ Satellite View Enhancements
Under Filters → Satellite view, you’ll now find OroraTech Satellites clearly separated under LEO satellites, so it’s easier to identify what data source you’re viewing. You will also see them in the LEO passes section.
📍 Incident Overview Enhancements
Quickly see the next satellite overpass for faster situational awareness.
⭕️ Cluster View
Spot latest fire detections on the Cluster for an even more clear view.
