Abstract

Forest fire prediction constitutes a significant component of forest management. Timely and accurate forest fire prediction will greatly reduce property and natural losses. A quick method to estimate forest fire hazard levels through known climatic conditions could make an effective improvement in forest fire prediction. This paper presents a description and analysis of a forest fire prediction methods based on machine learning, which adopts WSN (Wireless Sensor Networks) technology and perceptron algorithms to provide a reliable and rapid detection of potential forest fire. Weather data are gathered by sensors, and then forwarded to the server, where a fire hazard index can be calculated.
