METHOD FOR HAZARD DETECTION AND FIRE PREVENTION IN A MOBILE REFUELING SYSTEM

A method for hazard detection and fire prevention during mobile refueling operation includes: accessing a geospatial position of a mobile refueling platform; detecting the geospatial position within a geospatial region as a first condition in a set of conditions, the geospatial region permitted for refueling operation; accessing a distance between the mobile refueling platform and a surface of an object proximal the mobile refueling platform; detecting the distance exceeding a distance threshold as a second condition in the set of conditions; accessing a concentration of a gas proximal the mobile refueling platform; detecting the concentration falling below a concentration threshold as a third condition in the first set of conditions; and in response to the set of conditions corresponding to a set of target conditions for mobile refueling operation, transmitting a control signal to open a fuel valve of the mobile refueling platform.
