Abstract - India has 67.5 mHa of Forest cover, of which 44 mHa (65%) is prone to forest fires annually, causing a loss of approximately 105 million US dollars. The annual cost of fighting conventional forest fires with petrol is close to Rs 44 million. massive amount of fires that appear out of the blue. economic and ecological effects. The number of fires worldwide is rising. Wildfires are uncontrolled fires that seriously harm both natural and societal resources. Once the fire is started, it spreads quickly throughout the forest, causing enormous damage. Wildfires can occur for a variety of reasons, including lightning, extremely hot and dry weather, a severe drought, and human ignorance. Forests have suffered significant damage over the previous ten years, with the majority of those mishaps being brought on by forest fire. This IoT-based system uses a variety of sensors to rapidly identify wildfires. Using an Internet of Things NodeMcu module, it sends data to a server and notifies the system of the fire. This device will aid in the early detection of wildfires, making it easier to put them out or control them and preserving precious forest life.
