Anintegrated Iot based Approach Enabled in UAV for the Early Prediction of Forest Fires

Abstract

Forests are habitats to millions of Biotic and Abioticfactors, It support numerous ecosystems and helps in maintain the ecological balance of the planet. However, the forest fires can cause significant property damage and loss of both human and animal life.It creates great impact on the resource ,economy and environment of the region. Forest fires wiped out the resources and heritage of the forest in a short span time. This paper proposes anintegrated approach of Internet of Things ,wireless sensor networks and Image processing bydesigninghybrid Unmanned Aerial Vehicle(UAV)to forest fire detection system.This forest fire detection system make use of UAVs to track and observe the changes in various environmental parameters includes temperature, humidity and soil moisture which in turn responsible for woodland fires.
