Abstract

If water is the bloodstream of life, air - lungs, soil - food, then forests are
undoubtedly life. Forests play a key role in the quality of life on earth as they make up
the bulk of renewable natural resources, as well as providing ecosystem goods and
services. Forests serve as the primary source of many non-timber and timber products
and play an important role in sustaining human life on earth by maintaining adequate
environmental conditions. Forest fires occur i.e., manifest in forests and on forest land.
From all causes of forest damage, of abiotic nature (extreme temperatures - droughts
and frosts, snow, hail, wind, torrential rains, acid rain, etc.) and biotic nature (humans,
insects, fungi, bacteria, viruses, etc.), forest fires are the greatest threat for forests and
natural ecosystems as a whole. Aided by the wind, they spread with great speed,
especially in the coniferous forests and in a very short time leave desolation behind. The
subject of the research are the different types of systems for early detection of forest
fires, according to the applied technical solutions in other countries, the configuration
of the land in the Republic of North Macedonia and the comparative analysis of different
systems, we consider the most appropriate to use a hybrid system consisted of video
camera networks and wireless sensor networks that would complement video
surveillance of those parts of the forest that are not in the field of view of the cameras.
Implementing this or a similar model in the Republic of North Macedonia would have
