FOREST FIRE DETECTION SYSTEM USING WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORK

Abstract

Forest and urban fires have been and still are serious problem for many countries in the world. Many incidents of man-made and natural disasters were happening around the world. Forest fires are one of the most common disasters occurring during the dry season. Once the fire inside deep forest starts, it burns and destroys everything and spreads everywhere within the forest. The damage cause due to forest fires are more in recent years and an immediate precautions has to be taken to reduce the forest fires.TheRealtime   monitoring is much more needed in forest areas about bushfires in order to extinguish the fire.The objective of this work is to implement an internet of things based forest fire detection system with WSN(Wireless Sensor Network) , it detect the forest fires and sends the fire alert to concerned officials using fire detection sensors with help of  Arduino,GSM (Global System for Mobile communication),RF(RadioFrequency) module which would help to extinguish the fire in the location where it starts slowly
