OBJECTIVES

To develop a system that will allow:

1 ANY VOLUNTEER CITIZEN WITH A SMARPHONE TO REPORT A SPOTED FIRE BY AUTOMATICALLY SENDING:

  • Geolocation coordinates (place of observation);
  • An image of what is being observed (photo taken with the smartphone);
  • Additional data to georeference the observed phenomenon:
     – The orientation (automatically gathered from the smartphone);
    – The approximate distance to the spotted event (provided by the user).

2 TO IDENTIFY, FOR EACH CONTRIBUTION:

  • The approximate geolocation of the observed event;
  • The degree of confidence/uncertainty of data received.

3 THE INTEGRATION AND PROCESSING OF DATA MADE AVAILABLE BY VOLUNTEER CITIZENS:

  • Identifying almost in real time the geolocation and extent of the observed phenomena;
  • Providing information to differentiated users.
