Abstract

A fire accident can be caused by many hazards, such as a propane tank, a defective product, a vehicle crash, or poor workplace safety. Because accidents involving fire are often unexpected and sudden, there isn’t a standard legal process for dealing with them, other than filing a negligence or workers compensation claim. This project aims to detect and monitor Fire Accident incidents well in advance and alert the surroundings to minimize the losses. This is an integration of IoT and Deep Learning Technologies, where sensors are used to collect the relevant data under the supervision of a controller unit. The controller unit collects and sends this data to a cloud database, from where the data for the Deep Learning model is fetched. This data is then used for making some insights and further predictive analytics. From the insights, many variables were found to be one of the reasons for a fire accident to take place. We considered the information about variables like Flame sensor, Temperature, Heat Index, GPS coordinates, Smoke, Type of Gases, Date, and Time for feature set generation and fed the model to a deep neural network for making future predictions. Comparing to existing conventional methods, this proposed method is different in terms of integrating deep learning with IoT. This method of approach will predict the chance of accidents priorly by classification of data.

Highlights

  • In the process of managing a fire accident place, it is laborious and arduous to analyze the situation

  • A gas sensor is used to measure gases like LPG, CO, CH4, Alcohol, Propane, Smoke in the surrounding area, which are the major causes in fire accident zones

  • The heat index has a crucial role in a fire accident zone, which will convey the severity of the accident

Summary

Introduction

In the process of managing a fire accident place, it is laborious and arduous to analyze the situation. As technology is increasing vastly, industries are increasing proportionally. The main problem here is to maintain fire safety at every moment. If we recollect the major fire accidents in the year 2020, there are many which include home fires, electrical fires, catastrophic multipledeath fires, fireworks fires, etc. As part of this paper, let us see the Beirut port explosion on August 4, 2020. Beirut’s port explosion [1] is one of the non-nuclear explosions which affected the crunching of the port and destroyed about half the city. The main cause of this incident is the detonation of 2,700 tons of ammonium nitrate, which is a combustible chemical compound used to manufacture explosives
