WILDFIRE ALERT AND MONITORING SYSTEM (WAMS)
Introduction
A Wildfire Detection and Monitoring System is a technological solution designed
to detect and monitor wildfires in real-time, enabling swift response and minimizing damage.
The system leverages advanced technologies such as IoT sensors, satellite imaging, and
artificial intelligence to provide accurate and timely information.
• ZigBee Module is used for wireless communication in existing system.
• It is very slow and has lesser range than Wi- Fi Module which is used in
Proposed System.
• In the proposed system The design system uses three sensors tilt sensor(to detect
the inclination of tree when its being cut),temperature sensor(to detect forest
fires),sound sensor(for effective detection of illegal logging i.e. even the sounds
generated while axing the tree are also sensed).
• Data generated from these sensors is continuously monitored
• This system can monitor real-time related parameters, e.g., temperature, relative
humidity, and send the data immediately to the computer of the monitoring .
• The collected data will be analyzed and managed by the computer.
• Compared with the normal meteorological information and basic forest resource
data, the system can make a quick assessment of a potential fire danger. With
respect to the sensors, their output devices are activated through relay switch
Disadvantages:
• Less Accuracy
• Short range communication
• Many problems with fire protection personnel abound, such as carelessness, absence
from the post, inability for real-time monitoring and the limited area coverage.
Advantages:
• Long range communication using IOT and GSM.
• Easy to identify the problem in forest area and monitoring in IoT cloud page and Web
server.
