Forest Fire Detection Using IoT Devices

Abstract

In the advancing world, it is very crucial to protect our environment. Many incidents of man-made and natural disasters are occurring around the world. Forest fires are one such catastrophe for environment. Once the fire inside the deep forest starts, it burns and destroys the complete forest region. Such disasters should be curbed. The objective of this work is to design and implement an IoT based system which is self-sustaining and would predict and detect the forest fires and send the exact location to concerned officials which would help firefighting personals to extinguish the fire in the location when it is in its initial stages. The developed system uses different IoT sensors to communicate and transmit data.
