Among them are the <strong>City Council of Fund\u00e3o<\/strong>, <strong>INFOEX<\/strong>, the <strong>Directorate General of Cultural Heritage of Castilla y Le\u00f3n<\/strong>, the <strong>Las M\u00e9dulas Foundation<\/strong>, the <strong>Diputaci\u00f3n de \u00c1vila<\/strong> and the Agency for Research and Innovation of the Principality of Andorra.<\/p>\n<p><strong>MEMS Sensors, Wireless Networks, and Fire Simulation<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Among the results presented were <strong>prototypes of micro and nanosensors<\/strong> based on MEMS technology, capable of detecting gases, particles, and soil moisture, as well as identifying hot spots and measuring wind speed and direction. New prototypes of low-cost <strong>multisensor monitors<\/strong> were also showcased to record temperature, humidity, wind, and emissions (gases and particles) from vegetation combustion.<\/p>\n<p>These devices are integrated into a <strong>wireless network<\/strong> and transmit their data to <strong>cloud-based software<\/strong>, which enables real-time visualization, fire spread simulation, and fire risk prediction. This system may also provide useful information to the public about air quality in their surroundings.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pilot Trials in Different Settings<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The project has carried out its first pilot trials at the <strong>INIA wind tunnel (Madrid)<\/strong>, the <strong>ICIFOR-INIA-CSIC<\/strong> experimental facility, and during controlled burns in the provinces of <strong>Le\u00f3n and \u00c1vila<\/strong>. These tests were conducted in collaboration with the <strong>Forest Fire Reinforcement Brigades (BRIF)<\/strong> of the <strong>Ministry for the Ecological Transition and the Demographic Challenge (MITECO).<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The data collected is already helping advance the design of final devices, which are aimed not only at prevention and early warning but also at providing environmental information to the public.<\/p>\n<p><strong>International Cooperation Against Climate Change<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>SenForFire<\/strong> is <strong>coordinated by Esther Honta\u00f1\u00f3n<\/strong> from the <strong>Institute of Physical and Information Technologies (ITEFI)<\/strong> of the <strong>Spanish National Research Council (CSIC)<\/strong>, and includes partners such as the <strong>University of \u00c9vora<\/strong>, the <strong>French CNRS<\/strong>, and the <strong>University of Coimbra.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The project is part of the European <strong>Interreg Sudoe<\/strong> program, which promotes <strong>transnational cooperation<\/strong> to address common challenges in southwestern Europe, such as <strong>climate change<\/strong> and <strong>the sustainable management of natural environments.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The European project brings together experts from four countries to present smart sensors, cloud software, and field tests aimed at improving early detection and fire management<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4927,"featured_media":46613,"parent":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"content-type":"","_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0},"class_list":["post-46614","noticia-proyecto","type-noticia-proyecto","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
