Abstract

Most of the cities in Latin American must face the phenomenon of settlements occupied by people displaced by violence or poverty. These communities build their homes in unstable terrains or use inadequate materials (wood, cardboard). In Colombia, these settlements have suffered great tragedies due to uncontrollable wildfires. Traditionally, fire alarm systems are not oriented to solve the problems of marginalized people. This paper describes the design and implementation of a low-cost fire alarm system for two settlements in the Popayán - Colombia. The system uses Internet of things technologies and sends alarms to the fire station.
