SCEMAS – Fire Risk Detection & Alert System

SCEMAS (Smart City Environmental Monitoring and Alert System) is a full-stack system designed to detect fire risks in urban environments, analyze sensor data, and notify relevant stakeholders in real time.

Built for SE 3A04 – Software Design II (Large System Design).

Overview

SCEMAS combines:

• Real-time sensor data (temperature, smoke, humidity)
• Fire risk analysis (real-time + historical data)
• Alert system for fire departments
• Visualization via maps and heatmaps

Goal: early fire detection + faster response + safer cities

Architecture

Hybrid architecture:

• PAC (Presentation–Abstraction–Control) → modular UI + multiple user roles
• Blackboard (Data-Centered) → shared data space for real-time decision-making, chosen to handle uncertainty, real-time data, and multiple cooperating components

Key Features

• User authentication (login / register / RBAC)
• Sensor data ingestion & validation
• Fire risk prediction
• Alert generation & notification
