I ranked wildfire camera feeds under a hard alert budget with classical OpenCV. It matched a CNN-on-every-frame at 1.4 neural-net calls per window instead of 3,645. Here's where it fails.
Wildfire camera networks have far more feeds than anyone can watch. The problem isn't finding smoke on one frame; it's deciding which of dozens of tiles a person should open next, without flooding them with alerts. So I fixed the budget first: 2 alerts per camera per 81-minute window (a FIgLib sequ…
