The system alerts the operator, institutions and other persons of interest within 5 minutes of the detection of a forest fire. This allows timely measures to be taken, which reduces the material damages, as well as the danger of spreading beyond control. The results of the prompt notification are less forest areas and trees destroyed, less to none animal and plant spieces affected and minimal risk for people.
Each of the system modules has internal GPS receiver. In case of forest fire this enables the operator to identify its location with extreme accuracy and report it to the responsible authorities.
The first generation of the system was designed with special forest fire detection algorythm. It was based on three main indicators. Therefore the errors in fire detection were close to zero. The second generation of the FOREST SENTINEL system bases fire detection on four indicators, and allows for zero errors.
The modules of the FOREST SENTINEL system work with all cellular data operators, which enables connectivity 24 hours per day, 7 days per week, 365 days per year, regardless of the atmospheric conditions or other force majeure circumstances. The server, responsible for data collection, also has three additional GPRS channels, in case the main internet connection is unavailable.
All system modules are charged autonomously and green. Every module has a photovoltaic panel in order to draw power from the solar energy. The power is stored in the latest generation Li-Ion battery for night time operation and in case of unforseen circumstances.
The current system design allows the modules to operate without any sunlight for continuous 72 hours.
All modules work together in an independant network. Every module sends operational information to all others, receives information from all others, and resends it. This allows for no functional or integriy change of the complete FOREST SENTINEL system if a module is destroyed or damaged.
The installation of the modules in the forest in no way harms the tree on which they are installed. The attachment is implemented through holders and specially designed mounts.
All system components function wirelessly. This means low installation costs, low maintenance costs, maximum efficiency and minimal chaos.
Every module is equiped with intrusion detection system. In case the system is activated, the module begins sending constant information in real time about its current location. This way it can be located and brought back. The module network has its own unique encrypted network key. That makes it impossible for unauthorized people to connect to the network.
The operator part of the FOREST SENTINEL system is equipped with the latest generation of forest fire detection software. It is programmed on the most modern software languages with vision of the future. It is also functional and with modern interface design. It displays current information about all installed modules and the latest data collected in real time.
Once the FOREST SENTINEL system is installed and operational, you can keep track of the protected area from every point of the world, at any time.
All modules are powered autonomously and green. We use lead-free components and solder. All components of the system have been designed to meet the highest ecological standards in the telecommunications industry.
