IoT based Safety System: LPG/CNG Detection and Alert

Internet of things (IoT) connects people and things. It helps in transforming the current system to provide quality of services to the society. In order to support the idea of a smart city, IoT plays a key role to add services for citizens and the administration of the city with advanced technology. IoT has the capability to provide updated information to all the authorities who are dealing with the emergencies like fire, crime etc. IoT is also responsible for mitigating the challenges to emergency response that includes the current problems like poor communication network and lag in information. In this paper, an ARC-GIS and IoT based autonomous system is proposed. The system detects fire. The system consists of the fire-detecting device that makes use of different sensors with the ESRII ArcGIS map, responsible for detecting location of the incident. It first sends the push notification to the owner of the location. In case the fire is very high, it sends the notification to the fire-brigade application with all the details like, address of the incident, contact number, type of fire and the latitude and longitude values of the incident. The driver from the fire brigade can use the latitude and longitude values to get the shortest route from his current location to the incident location. The administrator web application is also developed that can be used for surveillance.
