The objective of this article is to identify current trends and prospects for the use of technical facilities and installations to prevent the spread of wildfires by analyzing the literature. The analysis of the literature has allowed an analysis of different ground-based wildfire detection and monitoring systems: optical sensors and digital camera systems, and wireless sensor network systems. The author concludes that the wireless sensor network can be seen as a partial solution when used in combination with other technologies. Keywords—observation towers, optical systems, optical sensors, digital cameras, wireless sensor network.
