Abstract

A firefighter saves so many life at huge risk. The working event site is so hazardous. Sometimes they die during their job of saving life of others. So the safety and health monitoring of firefighter should be on the top priority. As they work under extreme pressure conditions a proper system should be there which can do real time monitoring in order to keep them safe and improve there working efficiency. The proposed approach is for a real-time firefighter health monitoring and tracking system. The suggested technology, which uses GPS to track a firefighter's health and present location, can be mounted on their body. It also warns firefighters if flammable gases are present. The technology can also track a firefighter's axial movements. This data will be sent to a cloud platform, from which multiple control rooms will be able to view it. This system is made up of tiny physiological devices, sensors, and transmission modules that can be worn on the body. So, by utilising these tools, we want to construct a rudimentary lifeguard for firefighters at a low cost and with good dependability. Through the analysis of the data produced by the system and the use of simple data science methods to draw valuable conclusions, this system can be useful for firefighter training.
