Introduction

FLIR Ignite is a cloud storage service for thermal images. Upload images from your FLIR Ignite enabled camera and your data will be instantly available across all your devices. With FLIR Ignite you can quickly share images with colleagues and clients whether you are in the office or on the go. You can also invite team members to work in the same fold-er and files. FLIR Ignite Sync allows you to sync your image library with your computer, for easy access when creating reports.
FLIR Ignite provides features where you can:

  • View images and data
    Any image uploaded from your FLIR Ignite enabled camera can be directly viewed from your web browser. You can see measurement functions in the image, read notes attached, zoom in to see more details, and switch between thermal and visual images.

  • Organize in folders
    Your FLIR camera can create folders and these folders will be created in FLIR Ignite as well. Images saved in the folders on your camera will be uploaded to the corre-sponding folder in FLIR Ignite. You can create additional folders and move the folders created in your camera into those, to create a suitable structure for your thermal images.

  • Search
    You can search among all your files and images uploaded to FLIR Ignite. It is possible to search on file names, folder names, and any notes added to the images.

  • Sync images with your computer
    With FLIR Ignite Sync your image library is automatically synced with your computer, allowing you to easily analyze and create reports in a FLIR Thermography software. You can add or rename images and all changes will instantly be synced across all your devices.

  • Download images
    You can select one or more images for download to your computer. Folders and selec-tions of multiple files are downloaded as .zip files.

  • Collaborate with team members
    You can invite team members to edit or view a folder. The collaborators simply sign in to their FLIR Ignite account, accept the invitation, and can then start working directly in the folder.

  • Share with colleagues and clients
    You can share results with colleagues and clients by generating a shared link. You can share individual images and entire folders. Shared links can be password pro-tected and you can set an expiry date.
