Climate change has emerged as a new challenge worldwide in the past few years. • The Incidents of fire in the forests are increasing with each passing year. Every year, we hear a news of bushfires in the forests. • This is because of the hot weather and the temperature that is increasing day by day. • Digital technology has always helped the mankind in dealing with different matters of life. • It is been widely said that digital technology has been the vital force in preventing the certain hazards. • In the same, digital technology has been incorporated in order to fight the spread of wild bushfires. • Technology is been used to predict and prevent the wildfires. Solutions of digital technology are also employed in the fields of mining, oil and gas sector.
Bushfire Prevention Technology: Following are the technologies to prevent wildfires: • Satellite: • Drones: • Robots: • Virtual Reality: • Artificial Intelligence:
Satellite: • Satellites are massively use to detect the potential fire places. Its software is use to identify the dangerous fire places. • It has reached or what is its tendency on the basis of its speed. With the implementation of technology. • The spread of the fire can be prevent. If fire through the satellite seems to become a major threat and there is danger of spreading of fire. • Then fire tankers and ground fire fighters are dispatched to the place of fire in order to prevent the spread of fire.
Drones: • Drones are excessively used at night time when winds slow or die down. They have an additional capability as they have both regular and thermal imaging cameras. • Their working method implies flying so they fly into the areas where other aircrafts run by men cannot reach. • That are use by manned aircraft and fire evacuation crews in order to control the spread of fire.
Robots: • Firefighting robots are the most innovative invention in the field of robotics. • There are many times when fire gets so hot that fire fighters cannot even get close to the site of fire. • In such a situation, firefighters are unable to extinguish the fire due to extreme heat. • the robot is feeling less technology that does not have any sense.
Virtual Reality: • Virtual reality has taken up every department including the firefighting. • It works by creating 3D representation in such a way that fire scenarios seem real. • It has special instructors that changes the speed and direction of the wind due to which it seems more real. That is why it is called virtual reality. • Many agencies of United Nations have incorporated the virtual reality as part of their agenda that has greatly helped the masses in achieving the sustainable life goals.
Artificial Intelligence: • In the recent decade, there is a lot of development in artificial intelligence. • AI collects the data that can be use to prevent the spread of fire. • There are many AI sources that cover a range of objects including cameras, weather data, satellite images, social media, IoT sensors etc. • Developed and organized Fire protection companies have incorporated the few of these digital technologies in order to fight the wild bushfires and prevent its spread.
