Hello everybody,

I am new in artificial intelligence and more precisely in computer vision. I started to train a YOLOv5 model to detect the beginnings of forest fires. I discovered Roboflow while looking for tutorials on how object detection works and I found their explanation great. Moreover the articles written are very interesting to understand some data like the mAP.

I am currently building a dataset with images of burning forest and soon I will add smoke detection. I’m thinking of making this dataset available to everyone so take advantage of it if you are interested.

For the moment I use roboflow mainly to manage my dataset with the increase of the data and also to make some retouches on my annotations which was not correct (I begin 😅). But I think that soon I will test to train a model on my dataset directly from their web interface.

I think that regularly I will add information about this project so feel free to react to this post. I will be happy to discuss with you.

Hi @teodf - wanted to check in on this. How is the project going?

Any issues with detections, or any other questions about model improvement?

If you didn’t know, we added [“Cloning” to Universe](https://help.roboflow.com/dataset-upload-cloning-images-from-roboflow-universe), to make it easier to add images to a dataset.

Here’s a page for “Smoke” datasets: [Smoking Datasets and Pre-Trained Models](https://universe.roboflow.com/browse/smoking)

And for “Fire Detection” (subject results): [fire detection | Roboflow Universe Search](https://universe.roboflow.com/search?q=fire%20detection)

- [Dataset with almost 10k images](https://universe.roboflow.com/buitems-ycaeh/fire-smoke-datasets)

And for “Fire Detection” (metadata results): [fire detection by Metadata | Roboflow Universe Search](https://universe.roboflow.com/search?q=fire%20detection&t=metadata)

- [Dataset with almost 5k images](https://universe.roboflow.com/gaukhar-slamova/fire_smoke-hqsaw)

Oh - and since you said you’re new to computer vision, we have some good resources for you at [Sign in to Roboflow](https://app.roboflow.com/jumpstart) and [Learn Computer Vision with Roboflow](https://roboflow.com/learn)
