Abstract

Our planet’s surface is one-third covered in forests. Despite being a great source of natural resources, the world has experienced numerous dangerous calamities, both natural and man-made, which have done a lot of damage to humanity. The forest fire is one such catastrophe. This paper shows a workaround system to detect forest fires as well as a monitoring station to simultaneously monitor the forest area in order to prevent the forest from suffering severe losses from fire. IoT is the technology in use. Here the sensors detect any changes in the environment, and with the integration of the Node MCU Microcontroller, the recorded fluctuation is sent to Cloud Storage which is “Google Firebase.” The concerned officials can monitor the relevant system based on real-time updates in the monitoring station. This early detection of a forest fire would help to take necessary measures to control and prevent the fire which might spread throughout the forest.
