Wildfires are natural risk phenomena that cause significant economic and environmental damage. In wildfire fighting strategy it is important to detect the wildfire in its initial stage and to apply, as soon as possible, the most appropriate fire fighting action. In both cases wildfire monitoring and surveillance systems are of great importance, so in the last decade the interest for various wildfire monitoring and surveillance systems has increased, both on the research and the implementation level. This paper describes one such system named iForestFire. It is an example of advanced terrestrial vision based wildfire monitoring and surveillance system, today widely used in various Croatian National and Nature Parks and regions, but it is also a system in constant development and improvement, both on theoretical and practical level. This paper describes its last improvements in video detection part that are based on notation of observer, cogent confabulation theory and mechanism of thought. Inclusion of cogent confabulation theory allows us to expend the use of existing wildfire observers to more general natural risk observers.
