A Forest Fire Warning Method Based on Fire Dangerous Rating

The importance of forest fire detecting was up to the destructive of forest fire, which can destroy resource safety and threaten human-living environment. The traditional forest fire monitoring and early warning methods are manly based on ground patrolling, watching tower, aerial patrolling, long-distance video monitoring, satellite monitoring, which are often inclined to miss the best time to extinguish the fire. This paper illustrates a real-time forest fire monitoring method based on the technology of WSN (wireless sensor network) and forest fire dangerous rating in comparison to the deficiency of traditional forest fire monitoring measures. Through the comprehensive analysis of three respects of network topology, energy saving as well as being stable and reliable, this paper brings forward the hardware design of sensor network node and network protocols suitable for forest monitoring. The designed system can conduct effective monitoring of forest environment. This paper envisages the deployment of Wireless Sensor Networks by using a multilevel data fusion to enhance the performance of the early fire detection process.
