Bringing Remote Wildlife to Life: A Complex Collaboration with the National Park Service
This remote installation demanded meticulous planning and coordination with the National Park Service, exemplifying that live streaming solutions for rugged, remote locations are never one-size-fits-all. The logistical challenges were immense, involving the transport of specialized equipment via FedEx, local air carriers from Anchorage to King Salmon, Alaska, as well as helicopters and seaplanes to reach the final destination.
Capturing live footage of iconic brown bears feeding on salmon during their spawning journey required innovative, off-grid solutions. Custom-designed power systems, over 40 miles of fixed wireless connectivity with mountaintop repeaters, and bespoke camera and audio setups were carefully engineered to deliver unparalleled coverage while remaining out of reach of curious and powerful bears.
To withstand Alaska's harsh weather conditions, every element of the power, network, and camera systems was designed for durability and reliability. This project is a testament to the intricate effort and expertise required to stream the untamed beauty of nature from some of the world’s most remote locations.
