Abstract

Wildfires are a huge problem in California. The arid landscape, high temperatures, strong wind, and vast open spaces are ingredients for wildfires. This project investigates different types of sensors that could be used for early detection and prevention of wildfires in California. We will be using optimization to examine existing data provided by researchers to determine the type of sensor best for Northern California early fire detection in theory. The ultimate goal of this project is to provide a recommendation to the state of California of which sensors / sensor technology (including detection algorithms) are best suited for California's unique landscape.
