Sensors for Fire and Smoke Monitoring - Hardcover

by Robert S. Allison (Guest Editor), Joshua Johnston (Guest Editor), Martin Wooster (Guest Editor)

This book presents the papers accepted to the Special Issue of the journal Sensors on "Sensors for Fire and Smoke Monitoring". The ten contributions to this book present a unique cross-section of current research priorities related to fire and smoke sensing in the scientific community. Although far from a complete survey, the articles presented demonstrate a growing interest in the use of remote sensing for wildfire research and monitoring, and the pursuit of new technologies for the detection and characterization of smoke, fire and their by-products. Notably, there is a strong interest in processing techniques for extracting increasingly complex products from existing data types. The papers presented provide an accurate reflection of the present focus of our field and provide a balanced introduction to the topic of sensors for fire and smoke monitoring.
