Every
year we see online and on other news media get dominated by news of
massive wildfires that ravage forested areas of the world. These are
events of great proportion and incite damages reaching up to billions of
dollars and could even lead to the loss of lives. Forest fires are
especially hard to predict but happen quite frequently. A massive budget
is allocated to fighting these catastrophes but little is done to help
prevent it. Many kinds of research following the guidelines of an early
forest fire warning system are currently undergoing trials but little to
none of these systems are currently in operation around the world.
Prevention mostly relies on making sure that hikers are conscientious
about how they practice fire safety in their camps and in throwing lit
cigarette butts around.
The rise of the Internet of Things (IoT) could help make it possible to prevent any forest first from ever happening, or help prevent its spread. The internet has made it possible for great leaps of technological development. It is not only a place for people to interact and post pictures; it’s the best place to share information about ongoing research. Many scientists make use of the online world to gather data as well as to share the findings in their studies to other scientists as well as the general public.
The internet of things has also made it possible for people to live lives in remarkable comfort. Our smartphones are never without connection and through it; we can do just about anything. Hailing gab has never been easier. A few simple taps on our mobile phones and food is delivered to our doorstep. There is no need to line up to watch a movie or concert when we can buy reserved seatings on our phone or just watch the show online. Convenience is the hallmark of this generation and will continue to drive innovation as we go deeper into the 21st century.
In this regard, IoT could prove to be of great help in helping prevent and fight forest fires. As more and more gadgets are designed to make use of online connectivity, so too will the future of forest fire prevention and suppression. Temperature and humidity sensors could be put to good use in vulnerable regions of our forest and mountains. Battery powered and connected online, it could transmit real-time data about the current temperature and humidity in the region. Such data could be invaluable in helping de-escalate a potentially dangerous situation.
A temperature sensor could be used to monitor the temperature in the area that’s most prone to starting fires. A smoke detector could alert authorities of an ongoing fire before it could develop into a large blaze. Humidity places an important role in starting a forest fire. An area of low humidity could be the target of focus and attention from officials to ensure no fire develop. Likewise, a heat intensity monitor could alert firefighters of exceptionally hot spots where a fire could start or already starting. Any areas experiencing high temperatures, low humidity, and the presence of smoke could help narrow down the specific location to focus all the resources to help prevent the start of a fire or stop it from spreading.
