Forest Monitoring and Traveler's Safety Gadget Using WSN and IoT

Abstract

Human life is always under threat for one’s who live or travel near forest areas. It is important to safe guard the life of human by taking necessary actions. It is also equally important to save life of animals from fire accidents occurring in forest regions naturally or by human errors and also hunting is a major threat to animal also illegal deforestation is matter of concern, so in order to overcome the above situations a solution must be developed by technology. This project involves the use of image processing concept to detect the presence of humans at boundaries of restricted area. Cutting of trees can be detected by installing sensors on trees and also a region will be covered by fire and smoke sensors to detect the fire accidents occurring at the particular region of forest. Travelers safety device is developed and given to people on check post who are entering the forest areas where mobile phone signals do not cover the area and communication is not possible but via wireless safety device an emergency alert can be triggered during rescue situation to the control room, the safety device can also be used during trekking to locate in which part of forest the traveler is travelling using wireless technology.
