Intelligent Forest Fire Monitoring System – from idea to realization
Wildfires, including forest fires, are natural phenomena that cause significant economic damage and have quite devastating effect to the environment all over the world. Early fire detection on one side and quick and appropriate intervention on the other one, are of vital importance for wildfire damage minimization. The fire season 2003 was quite severe one, particularly in Split and Dalmatia County. Provoked by great damages caused by 2003 wildfires in autumn 2003 a project was initiated at University of Split Faculty of Electrical Engineering, Mechanical Engineering and Naval Architecture Department for Modeling and Intelligent Systems, having the main goal to find a way how advanced information – communication technologies (ICT) could be used to improve wildfire prevention and protection. After three years of research and testing in 2006 the Intelligent Forest Fire Monitoring System called iForestFire was presented. iForestFire belongs to the last generation of wildfire monitoring and surveillance systems, having a lot of innovative and advanced features. Since 2006 it has been applied in various Croatian national and nature parks, but also the whole Istria region is covered by iForestFire network having 29 monitoring sta- tions and 7 operational centers. The paper describes main features of iForestFire system with emphasize on its development and implementation.
