“…The most common approach is a wearable device, where the system is developed for the firefighters to wear it on their body. The location of the device can be the hands [7][8][9][10][11], the head [12] or in multiple locations on the body [13]. Wearable devices are the most common approach in these systems, as they offer multiple ways to implement the components of such systems.…”

The multi-layered negative effects caused by pollutants released into the atmosphere as a result of fires served as the stimulus for the development of a system that protects the health of firefighters operating in the affected area. A collaborative network comprising mobile and stationary Internet of Things (IoT) devices that are furnished with gas sensors, along with a remote server, constructs a resilient framework that monitors the concentrations of harmful emissions, characterizes the ambient air quality of the vicinity where the fire transpires, adopting European Air Quality levels, and communicates the outcomes via suitable applications (RESTful APIs and visualizations) to the stakeholders responsible for fire management decision making. Different experimental evaluations adopting separate contexts illustrate the operation of the infrastructure.

“…For longer ranges with less power consumption, technologies like LoRaWAN [9,12,13,23,25] and ZigBee/XBee [7,14] are utilized. When no remote server is required and the data are displayed locally, Bluetooth or other small-range technologies are used [8,11,[15][16][17][18][19]24,27].…”
