Description: IIT Indore has a considerable land area under thick forest cover. In the blazing hot summers of Indore (as we all have experienced), there are chances of bushes catching fire and escalating to a forest fire. To prevent it, an aerial surveying drone equipped with infrared cameras and other sensors can be used to predict the areas which are potential hotspots.
Specifications:
- Recognize abnormally high-temperature spots of the forest cover to detect and signal the ground station immediately.
- Identify high-risk areas that generally have higher temperatures than average.
- Bonus Points for generalising the approach for detecting animals (such as wild boar herds and leopards) on our campus.
