Abstract: By using Unreal Engine for the creation of virtual environments we are able to simulate fire and flood scenarios with high accuracy and by using virtual UAVs we collect big virtual datasets. Mixing the virtual data with real-world data and training state-of-the-art machine learning models we hope to be able to detect real-world fires and floods with high precession.
