Abstract

The objectives of this research are (1) to develop a prototype drone for monitoring forest fires using deep learning techniques; (2) to develop an automatic system for detecting the forest fire images; and (3) to develop a warning system for a forest fire. The research process comprised 3 main steps. The first step was the preparation of images for processing. In this step 100 forest fire images and 100 non-fire images captured by drones were collected. The second step was the taking of the collected images to be used as a training set for training the system by forming the deep learning models using the Tensor Flow library for detecting a forest fire. The third step was the result display step. The research sample for studying the satisfaction with the model consisted of 5 experts and 27 general users. The research tools were (1) the application for forest fire detection, and (2) a questionnaire to assess satisfaction. The statistics used in this research were the accuracy index, mean, and standard deviation. The results show that there is 100 percent of accuracy for the non-forest fire sample image set; for the sample image set of forest file, there is 90 percent of accuracy; the accuracy for outdoor detection is 80 percent; and the result of the satisfaction assessment by the general users is at the high level, with the satisfaction rating mean of 4.13.
