Abstract/Summary
Fires ravaged over 4 million acres and thousands of structures across California during 2020[1]. California is prone to fires due to dry flatland and scarce rainfall every year. Fires cause damage to not only natural habitats, but also communities near the fire. Rebuilding taxes the local communities as well as state and federal resources. Stopping fires before they start is crucial to protecting ecosystems as well as lives. Currently, manned towers are the system in place today to detect fires. This project aims to detect early signs of fire through visual and infrared image capture in an automated process.
