Micro Forest Fire Detection

Forest Fire Detection by Satellites for Fire Control

Infrared sensors on board satellites have been widely used to collect statistics on fires, but not for fire control. Since the polar-orbiting satellites cover the northern Earth latitudes several times a day, their data are particularly suitable for detecting boreal forest fires. Currently, radiometers on board NOAA and ERS-2 satellites are used for operational fire management in Finland. Telef...

Forest-fire detection by means of lidar

Lidar is a promising tool for forest-fire monitoring because, due to its very high sensitivity and spatial resolution, this active detection technique enables efficient location of small smoke plumes that originate from forest fires in the early stages of development during both day and night and over a considerable range. Earlier experiments carried out by the authors testify that small fires ...

Forest Fire Detection using Wireless Sensor

With the advancement in human technology the risk of natural and man induced catastrophes increased exponentially. One of most dangerous disaster is forest fire. The forest fire represents continuous threat to species of flora as well as fauna. This paper highlights the powerful feature of wireless sensors for forest fire detection. The sensor data is collected using Arduino development board a...

A Survey of Forest Fire Detection Techniques

The most important parts of protective and observe systems are the fire detection systems. Fire detection is very significant for the safety of the people. In past there were many methods used in forest fire detection. This paper presents a new type of system which uses Un-manned Aerial Vehicle (UAV), wireless technology and power of artificial intelligence for forest fire detection. The unmann...
