Abstract
Forests are rich containment of resources and they play a vital role in preserving and maintaining the environment. The major hazard of the forests is forest fire as the consequence of the forest fire is catastrophic in nature. Hence it is of great importance that forest fire occurrence must be detected and extinguished before the fire spreads and destroys the resources. A lot of detection mechanisms are available for forest fire in the literature using wireless sensor networks and other methods. In this paper we propose a quadrant based clustering and deterministic deployment of nodes for detecting and extinguishing forest fires using Wireless Sensor and Actor Networks (WSANs).
