Abstract

Forest fires represent one of the most severe environmental disasters, causing extensive ecological, social, and economic damage—particularly in tropical nations like Indonesia. This research introduces a hybrid framework that combines Blockchain and Neural Network technologies to classify forest fire images. The goal is not only to enhance detection precision but also to guarantee the integrity and security of experimental data. Two deep learning architectures, ResNet-50 and VGG-16, were implemented and evaluated to compare their effectiveness in differentiating fire from non-fire imagery. The dataset merges locally collected images from the Puncak area of Bogor, Indonesia, with the public FIRE dataset from Kaggle, thereby increasing model generalization. Model training utilized a transfer learning strategy, and its performance was assessed through four key indicators: accuracy, precision, recall, and F1-score. The findings demonstrate that VGG-16 achieved the most reliable outcomes, obtaining an accuracy of 0.91 and an F1-score of 0.87, outperforming ResNet-50, which reached 0.82 accuracy. All experimental data, including training and inference outputs, were stored using the InterPlanetary File System (IPFS), while each file’s Content Identifier (CID) and metadata were recorded in a blockchain-based smart contract to ensure transparency, verifiability, and data permanence. The study concludes that integrating blockchain with deep learning establishes a trustworthy and tamper-resistant framework for forest fire image classification. Future research may explore lighter CNN models and the fusion of IoT sensor data to enable adaptive and real-time fire detection.
