Forest Fire Warning System Based on GIS and WSNs

Abstract

Forest fire is caused by burning weeds in the field or burning paper as sacrificial offerings in the graveyard, so that the forest fire early warning system is designed and developed with GIS and WSNs. A number of sensor nodes which constitutes the Wireless sensor networks were developed in the region which can measure the concentration of CO and smog and detect flame and gauge the temperature and humidity. These data including position information are sent to monitor center through the GRPS net and real-time displayed on the electronic map. The level of forest fire monitoring area can be mastered outright by the staff members.
