Wildfire Detection Using a CPS
pdf
Fire Departments including CALFIRE used to have look-out towers in forests. However look-out towers are costly to maintain. Our project aims to empower ordinary citizens to take charge in collecting real time environmental data that can be used to serve a common interest. Volunteers can be part of a CPS. They can use their smart phones to take picture of a wildfire and upload it to a server. Each volunteer will be a node of the CPS. The server is responsible for collecting and processing information in the defined coverage area. The coverage area will be divided into coverage grids.
