Abstract

Forests play a vital role in nature, purifying water, sustaining land, cycling nutrients, regulating climate, and storing carbon. They also provide habitat for many species and contribute to economic wealth. This research includes a thorough online survey of firefighters regarding the current issues facing their field of work and potential technology solutions. It also assesses the efforts made by the academy and businesses to use a variety of robot types for firefighting operations. The recommended technique consists of a few octa-copters that can not only visit waypoints and transport shipments on their own but can also carry out duties like monitoring, mapping, and observation. The three established operator positions—task commanding officer, team leaders, and team members—each have a unique information access role and mission-related duties. These operators make use of interfaces for virtual and augmented reality to easily gather scenario data and, in the instance of the mission chief, to direct the drone swarm.
