This system allows sectoral forest fire propagation. While not completely extinguished the fire, can protect the forest heritage, preserving autochthonous species in different sectors of the forest. This also protects the person as hikers, hunters or firefighters who are trapped in an extreme situation surrounded by fire. The towers can be of two types, one with self-sufficiency (Figure 1) with limited supply and other (Figure 2). Latter are reponerian water in the rainy season through transporting helicopters, which would move the tanks to a lake or dam for replacing them.
Each tower would have a computer which would control the temperature measurement sensors, a webcam, wifi and a wireless antenna. All electric and electronic systems will be powered by a battery, these are recharged via solar panels. At the bottom will have a button for emergencies that inform the tower location to rescuers. All sensor systems are controlled by computer, with a program made to understand the values and make decisions when it is convenient to deploy the arms to control the fire. You can also incorporate an electronic weather station. At the top would be advisable to install a lightning rod to protect the system and Ray Zone The distribution of the towers in wooded area, you should do based on statistics collected by the forestry authorities in potentially dangerous zones. I give you an idea of online distribution at a distance from tower of 6 to 10 km (Figure 3) .
Maintaining it is cheap and some of the costs can be amortized by using the wifi or wireless telephony.
That's all for today ...
