Abstract

Background of study: Wildfires pose a critical threat to global ecosystems, biodiversity, and human safety, with climate change intensifying fire frequency, scale, and unpredictability. Traditional wildfire detection approaches often suffer from delayed response, limited coverage, and insufficient automation, which restrict effective mitigation and early intervention. Aims and scope of paper: This paper aims to design and evaluate an intelligent Forest Fire Alert System that integrates satellite remote sensing, machine learning models, Internet of Things based environmental sensing, and real time alert communication to enable early wildfire detection and proactive risk assessment. Methods: The proposed system employs a Convolutional Neural Network to detect active fire regions from multispectral satellite imagery, while a Random Forest classifier estimates wildfire risk levels based on meteorological variables and IoT sensor data. Geospatial positioning through GPS supports precise location mapping, and a web-based dashboard disseminates real time alerts to forestry authorities for rapid response. Result: Experimental evaluation demonstrates strong performance of the proposed framework. The CNN model achieved an accuracy of 94.7 percent, precision of 92.3 percent, recall of 96.1 percent, and an F1 score of 94.1 percent. The Random Forest model obtained an accuracy of 88.2 percent with a ROC AUC value of 0.91, indicating reliable fire risk prediction capability. Conclusion: The integrated Forest Fire Alert System outperforms conventional detection methods in terms of accuracy, detection speed, and automation. The proposed approach provides a scalable, IoT enabled, and proactive solution for intelligent wildfire monitoring and management under evolving climatic conditions.
