Web GIS Technologies in Advanced Cloud Computing Based Wildfire Monitoring System
Wildfires are natural phenomena that cause significant economic damage. Apart from preventive measures, early fire detection on one side and quick and appropriate intervention on the other, are measures of vital importance for wildfire damage minimization. Therefore the wildfire monitoring and surveillance is quite important wildfire prevention measure. It is traditionally based on human wildfire surveillance, but modern ICT technologies today offer more advanced, video camera based wildfire-monitoring capabilities. The last generation of video based wildfire monitoring systems have two important features, first they are integrated with Geographic Information Systems (GIS), because the complete information about wildfire is not only its existence but also its position, and second, today’s wildfire monitoring “goes in cloud”, which means that it belongs to cloud computing or Web Information Systems (WIS) applications. This paper describes an example of such advanced cloud computing based wildfire monitoring system, where GIS, or more precisely Web GIS system is used, not only for fire location determination, but also to improve camera’s manual control and to enhance distant virtual video presence on wildfire field. The described system named iForestFire is not just another laboratory prototype ; it is a real time working system, widely used in Croatian National and Nature Parks and Adriatic Regions.
