1. Forest Fire Detection System based on Wireless Sensor Network Vel Pratheesh Sankar #35190979

2. Overview  Forest is one of the most indispensable resource  Causes of forest fire:  Natural  Uncontrolled human behavior  Occurs occasionally, but recently the due to climatic fluctuations and human activities there is a increased risk

3. Conventional Methods  Ground patrolling  Watching tower  Aerial prevention

4. Forest fire detection using WSN 

5. Data flow  Sensor nodes  Base station  Network coordinators  “Data Transmitted in a multi-hop manner”

6. Data flow  Data is not transmitted by every node to the base station, rather is aggregated and is transmitted through few nodes  This is done to optimize the energy consumption

7. Prediction  Spread of forest fire is strongly related to weather conditions, terrain, vegetation etc  Proper prediction model is selected to estimate the spread
