     BACKGROUND OF INVENTION 
     Field of Invention 
     The present invention is directed towards improvements in science and technology applied in the defense of private and public property, and human and animal life, against the ravaging and destructive forces of wildfires whether caused by lightening, accident, arson or terrorism. 
     Brief Description of The State of Knowledge in The Art 
     The US federal government is spending billions of US dollars annually on wildfire defense, only to lose record numbers of acreage and homes. 
     In 2017, over 8 million acres were scorched by wildfires. The fires killed more than 40 people and destroyed 8000 structures. Some estimates of the property damage in Northern California fires exceed $3 billion. Governor Brown of California has asked President Trump for $7.5 billion dollars to rebuild Santa Rosa. 
     Despite extensive news coverage, few recognize that wildfire embers fly long distances based on the relative humidity of the air. If there is low humidity, then these embers can fly from dry grass hillsides, like outside Santa Rosa, and ignite and destroy entire neighborhoods of homes. A primary reason this is possible is because most production houses have attic-ventilation screens, designed as illustrated in  FIGS. 2A and 2B , to allow wind-driven hot wildfire embers to fly into hot combustible attics, and burn the entire house down from the attic to the ground. 
     In recent years, some measures have been made to provide closable attic vents as shown in  FIGS. 3A, 3B and 3C , and closable soffit air vents as shown in  FIGS. 5A, 5B and 5C . Even attic and roof sprinkler systems as disclosed in US Patent Application Publication No. 2018/0078801, for example, are being proposed for buildings to provide defense against wildfires. 
     However, even with such measures, most homes and buildings are still very vulnerable to wildfire ember storms when they strike a neighborhood. This is especially true when wildfires are driven by strong prevailing winds, as illustrated in  FIG. 6A , attacking homes and buildings by radiant heat, direct flame contact, burning debris (e.g. wildfire embers) and wind. As illustrated in  FIG. 6B , the energy and turbulence of a wildfire ember storm will rage furiously especially in very dry, low relative-humidly climates. 
     Various conventional methods have been used for fighting and defending against wildfires, namely: aerial water dropping; aerial fire retardant chemical (e.g. Phos-chek(R) Fire Retardant) dropping; physical fire break by bulldozing, to stall the advance of wildfire; physical fire break by pre-burning, to stall the advance of wildfire; and chemical fire break by dropping fire retardant chemical such as Phos-chek(R) chemical over land, to stall the advance of wildfire. While these methods are used, the results have not been adequate in most instances where wildfires are raging across land under strong winds. And millions of homes have been left completed undefended and vulnerable against wildfire ember storms. 
     Recently, the State of California deployed its CAL FIRE™ mobile application for smartphones and other mobile computing devices. The purpose of this mobile application is to provide users with (i) notifications on where wildfires are burning at a given moment in time, (ii) notifications on the risks of wildfire in certain regions, (iii) helpful ways of preparing for wildfires, and (iv) other useful information to help people stay out of harms way during a wildfire. However, in its current state, this wildfire notification system does little to help home and business owners to proactively defend their homes and business against raging forces of wildfires and wildfire ember storms, in any meaningful way. 
     Clearly, conventional fire suppression methods are not working as needed to protect neighborhoods, homes, businesses and human life from the raging forces of wildfires. While more money is being spent and more people are being deployed to fight wildfires using conventional methods and technologies, the benefits are not being realized. 
     Therefore, there is a great need for new and improved methods of and apparatus for suppressing wildfires and providing improved defense and protection to property and life alike, while overcoming the shortcomings and drawbacks of prior art methods and apparatus.

Examples of such GPS-indexed maps of land parcels are reflected by the task report shown in  FIG. 16 , and examples of GPS-indexed maps are shown in the schematic illustrations depicted in  FIGS. 18, 20, 22 and 24 . 
     As shown in  FIG. 9 , the system network  1  also includes a GPS system  100  for transmitting GPS reference signals transmitted from a constellation of GPS satellites deployed in orbit around the Earth, to GPS transceivers installed aboard each GPS-tracking ground-based or air-based anti-fire (AF) liquid misting system of the present invention, as part of the illustrative embodiments. From the GPS signals it receives, each GPS transceiver aboard such AF liquid misting/misting systems is capable of computing in real-time the GPS location of its host system, in terms of longitude and latitude. In the case of the Empire State Building in NYC, NY, its GPS location is specified as: N40° 44.9064′, W073° 59.0735′; and in number only format, as: 40.748440, −73.984559, with the first number indicating latitude, and the second number representing longitude (the minus sign indicates “west”). 
     As shown, the system network  1  further includes multi-spectral imaging (MSI) systems and/or hyper-spectral-imaging (HSI) systems  14  for remotely data sensing and gathering data about wildfires, their location and progress. Such MSI and HSI systems may be space/satellite-based and/or drone-based (supported on an unmanned airborne vehicle or UAV). Drone-based systems  14  can be deployed and remotely-controlled by a human operator, or guided under an artificial intelligence (AI) navigation system. Such AI-based navigation systems may be deployed anywhere, provided access is given to such remote navigation system the system network and its various systems. Typically, the flight time will be limited to under 1 hour using currently available battery technology, so there will be a need to provide provisions for recharging the batteries of such drones/UASs in the field, necessitating the presence of human field personnel to support the flight and remote data sensing and mapping missions of each such deployed drone, flying about raging wildfires, in connection with the system network of the present invention. 
     During each wildfire data sensing and mapping mission, carried out by such UAS, a series of MSI images and HSI images can be captured during a wildfire, and mapped to GPS-specific coordinates, and this mapped data can be transmitted back to the system network for storage, analysis and generation of GPS-specified flight plans for anti-fire (AF) chemical liquid spray and misting operations to stall and suppress such wildfires, and mitigate risk of damage to property and harm to human and animal life. 
     A suite of MSI and HSI remote sensing and mapping instruments and technology  14 , currently being used by the US Geological Survey (USGS) Agency, can be used to collect, monitor, analyze, and provide science about natural resource conditions, issues, and problems on Earth. It is an object of the present invention to exploit such instruments and technology when carrying out and practicing the various methods of the present invention disclosed herein. These MSI/HSI remote sensing technologies  14  include: MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectro-radiometer) satellite system for generating MODIS imagery subsets from MODIS direct readout data acquired by the USDA Forest Service Remote Sensing Applications Center, to produce satellite fire detection data maps and the like https://fsapps.nwcg.gov/afm/activefiremaps.php; the World View 2 Satellite System manufacture from the Ball Aerospace &amp; Technologies and operated by DigitalGlobe, for providing commercially available panchromatic (B/W) imagery of 0.46 meter resolution, and eight-band multi-spectral imagery with 1.84 meter resolution; Octocopter UAS (e.g. OnyxStar Hyra-12 heavy lifting drone) supporting MSI and HSI camera systems for spectral imaging applications, http://www.onyxstar.net and http://www.genidrone.com; and SenseFly eBee SQ UAS for capturing and mapping high-resolution aerial multi-spectral images https://www.sensefly.com/drones/ebee-sq.html. 
     Any one or more of these types of remote data sensing and capture instruments, tools and technologies can be integrated into and used by the system network  1  for the purpose of (i) determining GPS-specified flight/navigation plans for GPS-tracked anti-fire (AF) chemical liquid spraying and misting aircraft, and ground-based spraying vehicle systems, and (ii) practicing the various GPS-guided methods of wildfire suppression described in detail in pending U.S. patent application Ser. No. 15/866,451, incorporated herein by reference. 
     Spatial intelligence captured using these remote data capture systems can be transmitted back to the automated wireless wildfire detection and notification network  4  shown in  FIGS. 10 and 11  so that each automated wildfire ember detection module  4 A is informed, and armed to control local anti-fire chemical misting equipment provided to the building on which the wildfire ember detection module  4 A is mounted. In turn, each wildfire ember detection module  4 A in the network illustrated in  FIG. 11  is readily adapted to generate and transmit electronic control signals to activate the automated hybrid misting system  6  to begin (i) automatically misting the lawn and surround ground cover with anti-fire (AF) chemical liquid if and as needed, and/or (ii) automatically misting anti-fire chemical liquid about all airflow entry points of the building (e.g. gables, soffits, rafters, turbines on roof etc), and all other building surfaces as may required or desired to adequately protect the building during a raging wildfire ember storm. 
     During such wildfire storms, it is expected that electrical power will be disrupted in the neighborhood, as will telecommunication network services, but that the automatic wildfire ember detection module  4 A will have received notifications from the surrounding network about the presence of a raging wildfire, and in response, the module  4 A will automatically command the local AF chemical liquid misting equipment to operate based on locally detected wildfire ember conditions, to dispense AF chemical liquid in a strategic manner so that misting clouds are generated when wildfire embers are flying through the air about the module  4 A, striking the building and trying to find a way into the interior space of the wood framed building, via air vents and other passageways, to ignite a fire inside the building and burn it down to the ground. 
     The wildfire defense system  6  of the present invention will be programmed with artificial intelligence (AI) programs running inside the wildfire ember misting controller  6 B, safely mounted within the wildfire-protected shed  50  or inside the building in a safe location. 
     One control strategy might involve the wildfire ember misting controller  6 B working in conjunction with the automated wildfire ember detection module  4 A automatically monitor and confirm that wildfire embers  17 E are flying through the air around the building (e.g. date-stamped local wildfire ember alert) before it automatically commands the liquid pump system  6 F to hydraulically pump anti-fire chemical liquid from supply tank  6 E into the pipe manifold  6 G and to the misting nozzles  6 H located all about the building for generating a fog-like misting cloud, thereby providing unprecedented wildfire protection to the building as it is actually being attacked by a fierce and energetic wildfire ember storm. 
     Another control strategy might involve the wildfire ember misting controller  6 B working in conjunction with the automated wildfire ember detection module  4 A automatically monitor and confirm that flying wildfire embers have been detected by a neighboring wildfire ember detection module  4 A, on a neighboring building located some predetermined distance away and occurring some time ago (e.g. date-stamped neighboring wildfire ember alert or event), before it automatically commands the liquid pump system  6 F to hydraulically pump anti-fire chemical liquid from supply tank  6 E into the pipe manifold  6 G and to the misting nozzles  6 H located all about the building for generating a fog-like misting cloud, thereby providing unprecedented wildfire protection to the building before it is actually attached by a fierce and energetic wildfire ember storm moving in the direction of the building under protection. 
     Regardless of AI control strategy running on the wildfire ember misting controller  6 B, each automated wildfire ember detection module  4 A (encased in a fire-protected housing) will support (i) real-time digital IR, thermal, and pyrometric image capture from its 360 degrees of viewing optics (i.e. 360 fields of view) supported by its image formation optics within its fire-protected housing  4 A 1 , and (ii) real-time pixel processing of these digital (multi-spectral/color) images so as to automatically recognize the presence of fire, wildfire, and flying wild-fire ember using various image processing techniques performed in module  4 A in a manner known in the image-processing based fire recognition arts. Upon such automated recognition of a “wildfire” or “flying wildfire ember” event, the module  4 A will automatically generate and transmit a GPS-indexed message and command to the local wildfire ember misting controller  6 B, as well as to other neighboring modules  4 A active and operating on the wireless wildfire ember detection network  4  (provided it has not been disrupted by the wildfire storm) so as to assist other automated wildfire ember detection modules  4 A in the neighboring region, in efforts to protect their designated properties against any particular wildfire storm moving through their regions. 
     It is also understood that the lithium-ion battery pack and controller  6 C will have adequate charge to operate the system  6  for at least 24 hours without interruption, or recharging by its PV solar panel  6 D, or external power supply, as the case may be. This way the system  6  of the present invention will be prepared to operate under very dangerous conditions created by a wildfire storming through a specified region, and provide the required degree of protection to save the building from the wildfire. 
     Specification of the Network Architecture of the System Network of the Present Invention 
       FIG. 9  illustrates the network architecture of the system network  1  implemented as a stand-alone platform deployed on the Internet. As shown, the Internet-based system network  1  comprises: cellular phone and SMS messaging systems and email servers  16  operably connected to the TCP/IP infrastructure of the Internet  10 ; a network of mobile computing systems  11  running enterprise-level mobile application software  12 , operably connected to the TCP/IP infrastructure of the Internet  10 ; an array of mobile GPS-tracked anti-fire (AF) liquid spraying/misting, each provided with GPS-tracking and having wireless internet connectivity with the TCP/IP infrastructure of the Internet  10 , using various communication technologies (e.g. GSM, BlueTooth, WIFI, and other wireless networking protocols well known in the wireless communications arts); and one or more industrial-strength data center(s)  8 , preferably mirrored with each other and running Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) between its router gateways, and operably connected to the TCP/IP infrastructure of the Internet. 
     As shown in  FIG. 9 , each data center  8  comprises: the cluster of communication servers  9 A for supporting http and other TCP/IP based communication protocols on the Internet (and hosting Web sites); a cluster of application servers  9 B; the cluster of RDBMS servers  9 C configured within a distributed file storage and retrieval ecosystem/system, and interfaced around the TCP/IP infrastructure of the Internet well known in the art; the SMS gateway server  9 D supporting integrated email and SMS messaging, handling and processing services that enable flexible messaging across the system network, supporting push notifications; and the cluster of email processing servers  9 E. 
     Referring to  FIG. 9 , the cluster of communication servers  9 A is accessed by web-enabled mobile computing clients  11  (e.g. smart phones, wireless tablet computers, desktop computers, computer workstations, etc) used by many stakeholders accessing services supported by the system network  1 . The cluster of application servers  9 A implement many core and compositional object-oriented software modules supporting the system network  1 . Typically, the cluster of RDBMS servers  9 C use SQL to query and manage datasets residing in its distributed data storage environment, although non-relational data storage methods and technologies such as Apache&#39;s HaDoop non-relational distributed data storage system may be used as well. 
     As shown in  FIG. 9 , the system network architecture shows many different kinds of users supported by mobile computing devices  11  running the mobile application  12  of the present invention, namely: the plurality of mobile computing devices  11  running the mobile application  12 , used by fire departments and firemen to access services supported by the system network  1 ; the plurality of mobile computing systems  11  running mobile application  12 , used by insurance underwriters and agents to access services on the system network  1 ; the plurality of mobile computing systems  11  running mobile application  12 , used by building architects and their firms to access the services supported by the system network  1 ; the plurality of mobile client systems  11  (e.g. mobile computers such as iPad, and other Internet-enabled computing devices with graphics display capabilities, etc) used by spray-project technicians and administrators, and running a native mobile application  12  supported by server-side modules, and various GUIs, supporting client-side and server-side processes on the system network of the present invention; and a GPS-tracked anti-fire (AF) liquid misting systems  5  for spraying buildings and ground cover to provide protection and defense against wildfires. 
     In general, the system network  1  will be realized as an industrial-strength, carrier-class Internet-based network of object-oriented system design, deployed over a global data packet-switched communication network comprising numerous computing systems and networking components, as shown. As such, the information network of the present invention is often referred to herein as the “system” or “system network”. The Internet-based system network can be implemented using any object-oriented integrated development environment (IDE) such as for example: the Java Platform, Enterprise Edition, or Java EE (formerly J2EE); Websphere IDE by IBM; Weblogic IDE by BEA; a non-Java IDE such as Microsoft&#39;s .NET IDE; or other suitably configured development and deployment environment well known in the art. Preferably, although not necessary, the entire system of the present invention would be designed according to object-oriented systems engineering (DOSE) methods using UML-based modeling tools such as ROSE by Rational Software, Inc. using an industry-standard Rational Unified Process (RUP) or Enterprise Unified Process (EUP), both well known in the art. Implementation programming languages can include C, Objective C, C, Java, PHP, Python, Google&#39;s GO, and other computer programming languages known in the art. Preferably, the system network is deployed as a three-tier server architecture with a double-firewall, and appropriate network switching and routing technologies well known in the art. In some deployments, private/public/hybrid cloud service providers, such Amazon Web Services (AWS), may be used to deploy Kubernetes, an open-source software container/cluster management/orchestration system, for automating deployment, scaling, and management of containerized software applications, such as the mobile enterprise-level application  12  of the present invention, described above. 
     Specification of the Automated Wildfire Ember Detection and Suppression System/Module of Present Invention 
       FIG. 10  shows a wildfire ember detection module  4 A mounted on the top of each building  300 . Each wildfire ember detection module  4 A is configured in the wireless wildfire ember detection and notification network  4 , for (i) receiving wirefire alerts and messages from neighboring modules  4 A, (ii) sensing and processing IR thermal images for automated detection of wildfires and wildfire embers in the field of views (FOVs) of the module, (iii) sending and recording the CO2 levels in the ambient air, (iv) measuring and recording the relative humidity (%) in the ambient air, (v) measuring and recording the temperature of the ambient air, and measuring and recording other parameters relating to the ambient environment which may be helpful in automated detection of wildfires and wildfire ember storms, so the anti-fire misting systems installed on property can be timely triggered to protect the building and property when a wildfire storm rages across the property. The advantage of being part of this network is that each module  4 A can scout for wildfires and alert other modules in the network in terms of GPS coordinates so that the specific properties can timely prepare for any such wildfire outbreaks in the vicinity. 
     Specification of the Wireless GPS-Tracked Wirefire Ember Detection and Notification Network Employing the Wirefire Ember Detection and Suppression Systems of the Present Invention 
       FIG. 11  shows the wireless GPS-tracked wirefire ember detection and notification network  4  employing with the wirefire ember detection and suppression systems  4 A depicted in  FIGS. 9 and 10 . As shown in  FIGS. 12A and 12B , each wireless GPS-tracked wildfire ember detection module  4 A, deployed in the wireless wirefire ember detection and notification network  4 , shown in  FIGS. 10 and 11 , comprises: a fire-protective housing cover  4 A 1 ; and various sensors and signal and data processing and storage components  4 A 2  through  4 A 19 , shown in schematic block diagram of  FIG. 12C . 
     As shown in  FIG. 12C , the sensors and signal and data processing and storage components arranged and configured about a microprocessor  4 A 20  and flash memory (i.e. control subsystem)  4 A 21  include: one or more passive infra-red (PIR) thermal-imaging sensors  4 A 2  connected together with suitable IR optics to project IR signal reception field of view (FOV) before the IR receiving array; multiple pyrometric sensors  4 A 3  for detecting the spectral radiation of burning, organic substances such as wood, natural gas, gasoline and various plastics; a GPS antenna  4 A 4 ; a GPS signal receiver  4 A 5 ; voltage regulator  4 A 6 ; an Xbee antenna  4 A 7 ; an Xbee radio transceiver  4 A 8 ; a voltage regulator  4 A 9 ; an external power connector  4 A 10 ; a charge controller  4 A 11 ; a battery  4 Al 2 ; thermistors  4 A 13 ; a power switch  4 A 14 ; a voltage regulator  4 A 15 ; external and internal temperature sensors  4 A 16 ; power and status indicator LEDs  4 A 17 ; programming ports  4 A 18 ; a digital/video camera  4 A 19 ; and other environment sensors adapted for collecting and assessing building intelligence, in accordance with the spirit of the present invention. Alternatively, the wildfire detection module  4 A and wireless wildfire intelligence network  4  can be realized using the technical disclosure of U.S. Pat. No. 8,907,799, incorporated herein by reference. 
     In the illustrative embodiment, the wildfire ember detection system  4 A supports a computing platform, network-connectivity (i.e. IP Address), and is provided with native application software installed on the system as client application software designed to communicate over the system network and cooperate with application server software running on the application servers of the system network, thereby fully enabling the functions and services supported by the system, as described above. In the illustrative embodiment, a wireless mess network is implemented using conventional IEEE 802.15.4-based networking technologies to interconnect these wireless subsystems into subnetworks and connect these subnetworks to the internet infrastructure of the system of the present invention. 
     Preferably, the optical bandwidth of the IR sensing arrays  4 A 2  used in the thermal sensors will be adequate to perform 360 degrees thermal-activity analysis operations, and automated detection of wildfire and wildfire embers. Specifically, thermal sensing in the range of the sensor can be similar to the array sensors installed in forward-looking infrared (FLIR) cameras, as well as those of other thermal imaging cameras, use detection of infrared radiation, typically emitted from a heat source (thermal radiation) such as fire, to create an image assembled for video output and other image processing operations to generate signals for use in early fire detection and elimination system of the present invention. 
     Pixel processing algorithms known to those skilled in the art will be used to automatically process captured and buffered pixels from different color channels and automatically determine the presence of fire, wildfire and flying embers within the field of view (FOV) of the wildfire ember detection module  4 A. Reference can be made to “Automatic Fire Pixel Detection Using Image Processing: A Comparative Analysis of Rule-based and Machine Learning Methods” by Tom Loulouse et al, 2015, University of Corsica, France; and “Fast Detection of Deflagrations Using Image Processing” by Thomas Schroeder et al, Helmut Schmidt University, Hamburg, Germany, 2014. 
     The pyroelectric detectors  4 A 3  detect the typical spectral radiation of burning, organic substances such as wood, natural gas, gasoline and various plastics. To distinguish a flame from the sun or other intense light source such as light emissions from arc welding, and thus exclude a false alarm, the following independent criteria are considered: a typical flame has a flicker frequency of (1 . . . 5) Hz; a hydrocarbon flame produces the combustion gases carbon monoxide (CO) and carbon dioxide (CO 2 ); and in addition, burning produces water which can also be detected in the infrared range. Each pyroelectric detector  4 A 3  is an infrared sensitive optoelectronic component specifically used for detecting electromagnetic radiation in a wavelength range from (2 to 14) μm. A receiver chip of a pyroelectric infrared detector consists of single-crystalline lithium tantalite. On the upper electrode of the crystal, an absorbing layer (black layer) is applied. When this layer interacts with infrared radiation, the pyroelectric layer heats up and surface charge arises. If the radiation is switched off, a charge of the opposite polarity originates. However, the charge is very low. Before the finite internal resistance of the crystal can equalize the charges, extremely low-noise and low leakage current field-effect transistors (JFET) or operational amplifier (Pomp) convert the charges into a signal voltage. 
     In general, most streams of digital intelligence captured by the wireless network  4  will be time and data stamped, as well as GPS-indexed by a local GPS receiver within the sensing module, so that the time and source of origin of each data package is recorded within the system database. The GPS referencing system supporting the system transmits GPS signals from satellites to the Earth&#39;s surface, and local GPS receivers located on each networked device or machine on the system network receive the GPS signals and compute locally GPS coordinates indicating the location of the networked device within the GPS referencing system. 
     When practicing the wireless network of the present invention, any low power wireless networking protocol of sufficient bandwidth can be used. In one illustrative embodiment, a Zigbee® wireless network would be deployed inside the wood-framed or mass timber building under construction, so as to build a wireless internetwork of a set of wireless PIR thermal-imaging fire outbreak detection systems deployed as a wireless subnetwork deployed within the building under construction. While Zigbee® technology, using the IEEE 802.15.1 standard, is illustrated in this schematic drawing, it is understood that any variety of wireless networking protocols including Zigbee®, WIFI and other wireless protocols can be used to practice various aspects of the present invention. Notably, Zigbee® offers low-power, redundancy and low cost which will be preferred in many, but certainly not all applications of the present invention. In connection therewith, it is understood that those skilled in the art will know how to make use of various conventional networking technologies to interconnect the various wireless subsystems and systems of the present invention, with the internet infrastructure employed by the system of the present invention. 
     The Automated Hybrid Clean Wildfire Inhibitor Misting System of the Present Invention, Controlled by the Wireless Automated Wildfire Ember Detection and Notification Network 
     As disclosed in Applicant&#39;s prior US Patent Applications, when treating combustible organic materials so they will not burn in the presence of a wildfire, it will be helpful in many instances to spray clean anti-fire chemical liquid over the target surfaces so that the droplets are relatively large and an adequate coating of anti-fire chemical dries over the treated surface. This way, when the chemically treated organic material is exposed to fire, the treated surface has adequate chemicals to break the free-radical chain reactions of the fire and thereby quickly suppress and/or extinguish the fire. 
     However, during wildfire storms, producing burning wildfire embers flying through dried heated air, driven by strong prevailing winds, it has been discovered that clean aqueous-based anti-fire (AF) chemical liquid, such as Hartindo AF31 clean anti-fire liquid, will perform as a more effective fire suppressant if provided to the burning fire in the form of a mist cloud, so that it can work on a wildfire and its embers, as described in the wildfire ember suppression process described in  FIG. 15 . 
     While most mist producing apparatus disclosed herein operates on the principle of transmitting an anti-fire chemical liquid through a misting nozzle under low, medium or high hydraulic pressure, it is understood that when spraying anti-fire chemical liquids over the surfaces of organic material during fire-protection treating operations, then spray-type nozzles will be often used as provided on the mobile spraying apparatus  5  shown in  FIGS. 21A and 21B . Using spray-type nozzles, it is possible to quickly deposit and form sufficient coatings of anti-fire chemical material on the treated surfaces, because spray-type nozzles produce liquid drops substantially larger in size than microscopic droplets formed by misting nozzles during misting operations, illustrated in  FIGS. 15 through 19B . 
       FIGS. 13A and 13B  shows automated hybrid clean wildfire inhibitor misting system of the present invention  6 , providing both an anti-fire chemical misting system for suppressing wildfire embers impacting a building as shown in  FIG. 13A  and a lawn and ground anti-fire chemical liquid misting system impacting the law and ground around the building as shown in  FIG. 13A , both automatically controlled by an automated wildfire ember detection and notification network shown in  FIGS. 10 through 12C . All of these system components are integrated into the system network shown in  FIG. 9 . 
       FIG. 14  shows a piping manifold  6 G, a network of piping, and a set of misting nozzles  6 H used to supply and produce anti-fire chemical misting droplets from the automated hybrid clean wildfire misting system  6  shown in  FIGS. 13A and 13B . 
     As shown in  FIG. 13A , automated multi-mode hybrid clean wildfire inhibitor misting system  6  comprises: an dual-mode anti-fire lawn and ground misting system  6 A shown in  FIG. 13B  for either misting water from a main water supply, or misting environmentally-clean anti-fire chemical liquid (e.g. AF31 anti-fire chemical liquid from Hartindo Chemical) over lawns (e.g. dried out grass) and ground surfaces covered with organic material; a wildfire ember misting controller  6 B (e.g. programmable microcontroller supported by a memory architecture) for controlling the various modes of the system  6 ; lithium battery pack and controller  6 C for supplying electrical power to the electronic components in the system  6  including the DC or AC electric motor of hydraulic (e.g. diaphragm-type) liquid pumping system  6 F; a photovoltaic solar cell panel  6 D for recharging the lithium-ion battery back  6 C while collecting sunlight with the PV solar panel  6 D as solar conditions allow; a supply tank containing an adequate supply (e.g. 100 gallons) of a liquid anti-fire chemical liquid realizable using AF21 anti-fire chemical liquid from Hartindo Chemical; a liquid spray misting pump system  6 F (e.g. self-priming DC or AC electrical-motor powered diaphragm liquid pump) for hydraulically pumping the anti-fire chemical liquid  6 E from its supply tank (e.g. 50-100 gallons) to a plurality of misting nozzles  6 H mounted all around a building being protected, and connected through adequate heat-resistant piping (e.g. ⅛″, ¼″ or ½″ metal tubing, or high-heat resistant plastic tubing such as PET) extending over relatively short distances under adequate hydraulic pressure, to support sufficient flow rates of anti-fire chemical liquid during a wildfire ember storm, determined in a manner well known in the fluid hydraulic arts; a piping manifold  6 G and piping network including a set of misting nozzles  6 H as shown in  FIGS. 14 through 19B  for producing clean anti-fire (AF) chemical mist according to the method described in  FIG. 15 ; a GPRS/GSM transceiver  6 I with suitable antennas  6 J, connected to the controller  6 B, and adapted for transmitting and receiving digital data packets using GPRS and GSM communication protocols, over the system network  1  shown in  FIG. 9 , to support a suite of digital communication services and protocols specified herein; a suite of communication services and protocols  6 L (e.g. email, SMS alert, PUSH protocol, XML, PDMS, and CALL alert) supported by GSM, for sending and receiving messages; and at least one electronic wirefire ember detection module  4 A, with 360 degrees of sensing and associated field of views (FOVs), and in wireless communication with the wireless wildfire ember detection and notification network  4  of the present invention shown in  FIGS. 1 -,  11 ,  12 A,  12 B, and  12 C. 
     As shown in  FIG. 13B , the lawn misting system  6 A comprises: a water supply  6 Q connected to a network of underground piping  6 R; misting-type sprinklers  6 O (e.g. misting nozzles) connected to the underground piping  6 R; misting-type rotors  6 P connected to the piping  6 R; valves  6 N connected to the underground piping  6 R, the local water supply  6 Q, and the liquid pumping system  6 F, which is operably connected to the supply of clean wildfire inhibitor liquid  6 E using piping; and a timer/controller  6 M connected to the controllable valves  6 N, and controlled by the wildfire ember misting controller  6 B, which is managed by the automated wildfire ember detection and notification network  4 , shown in  FIG. 13A . 
     The dual-mode lawn misting system  6 A shown in  FIG. 6B  has two modes of operation. During its first mode of operation, when no wildfire storm is detected, the lawn misting system  6 A automatically mists the lawn with water supplied from the local water supply  6 Q. During its second mode, when a wildfire storm is detected, the law misting system  6 A automatically mists the lawn with an environmentally anti-fire (AF) liquid  6 E supplied from a local supply of anti-fire (AF) liquid pumped from a pumping system  6 F. 
     In the preferred embodiment the hybrid wildfire misting system  6  also has at least two modes operation: (i) a manual mode where a building/home owner or manager can manually activate and operate the anti-fire chemical liquid misting system  6  to protect either the building  17  and/or the lawn and ground surfaces around the building  17 , as desired or required, based on intelligence in the possession of the human operator or manager; and (ii) an automated mode where the wildfire ember misting controller  6 B, in cooperation with the local electronic wildfire and ember detection module  4 A and associated wireless wildfire detection network  4 , shown in  FIGS. 10, 11, 12A, 12B and 12C , automatically activate and operate the anti-fire chemical liquid misting system  6  to protect both the building  17  and/or the lawn and ground surfaces around the building  17 , as required, based on intelligence automatically collected by the wireless wildfire detection and notification network  4 . 
     Preferably, modules  6 I,  6 K,  6 B,  6 C,  6 E and  6 F shown in  FIG. 13A  will be mounted and safely protected in the wildfire-protected shed or closet structure  50 , disclosed in great technical detail in Applicant&#39;s copending U.S. patent application Ser. No. 15/925,796, incorporated herein by reference. In the manual mode, a touch-screen or touch-type control panel associated with the controller  6 B is used by the operator to simply operate the system  6  in its manual mode, or automatically arm the system  6  to operate in its automated, artificial intelligence (AI) mode of operation. 
     The system  6  will be remotely controllable by the building manger/home-owner using a mobile computing system  11  running the mobile application  12 , as shown and described in  FIGS. 22A and 22B . Suitable graphical user interfaces (GUIs) will be supported on the mobile application  12  to enable the user to monitor and control the system  6  locally, or from a remote location, in real-time, provided the wireless communication infrastructure is not disrupted by a wildfire. In the case of active wildfires, the wildfire detection and notification network  4  should be accessible by a remote user provided with the mobile application  12 . As the system  4  will continuously collect, record and monitor intelligence about specific regions of land and any wildfires detected in such regions, and advise any specific home/building owner of the status of any specific building before, during and after a wildfire. 
     The system  6  will include and supported automated mechanisms for remotely monitoring and reporting the amount of anti-fire chemical liquid  6 E available and remaining for use in supporting anti-fire misting operations, as illustrated in  FIG. 15 , during an automatically detected wildfire ember storm. Preferably, adequate reserves of anti-fire chemical liquid  6 E will be stored on each property before any given wildfire strike, to support several hours of wildfire ember suppression misting operations, which is typically expected during a wildfire storm before passes through and consumes the organic material that is desperately seeks to fuel its combustion process. 
     To provide adequate protection against flying wildfire embers combusting in a low humidity environment, the misting nozzles  64  will be mounted about the building  17  so as to provide adequate coverage over all air-inlet vents provided on the specific building being equipment with the wildfire misting system of the present invention, as well as on wood and other organic surfaces that might be vulnerable to hot wildfire embers during a wildfire ember storm, as illustrated in  FIG. 6B . The misting or fog patterns of each misting nozzle  6 H being used in the misting system  6  will be considered and exploited to provide the adequate misting protection required by the wildfire protection application at hand. Computer software tools may be developed and distributed to installers to assist in the design and installation of a hybrid wildfire misting system in accordance with the principles of the present invention. 
     In the illustrative embodiment, the clean anti-fire (AF) liquid to be used for wildfire ember misting operations is preferably Hartindo AF31 Total Fire Inhibitor, developed by Hartindo Chemicatama Industri of Jakarta, Indonesia, and commercially available from Newstar Chemicals (M) SDN BHD of Selangor Darul Ehsan, Malaysia, http://newstarchemicals.com/products.html. It is expected that service-oriented businesses will support the rapid design, installation and installation of the automated wildfire detection and misting suppression systems of the present invention, as well as the supplying and replenishing of clean anti-fire chemical liquid on each GPS—indexed property. It is expected that this can occur with the efficiency currently provided by conventional liquid propane supply companies around the country. Because of the reduced risk of loss of wood-framed or other buildings to wildfire, which the systems and method of the present invention will provide, while advancing the best practices for home and building property protection against wildfires, it is expected that fire insurance companies will embrace the best practices represented by the present invention, for reason of the great benefits such inventions will provide, predicted by Benjamin Franklin&#39;s time-honored principle of fire protection: “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” 
     When encountering the cloud of anti-fire liquid droplets, combustible wildfire embers will be suppressed or readily extinguished. The chemical molecules in the droplets formed with Hartindo AF31 liquid will interfere with the free radicals (H+, OH—, O) involved in the free-radical chemical reactions within the combustion phase of a fire, or wildfire embers, breaking these free-radical chemical reactions and extinguishing the fire&#39;s flames. Also, the droplets will vaporize when absorbing the radiant heat energy of the hot wildfire ember(s), rapidly expanding into a vapor, cooling down the embers, and displaying oxygen, causing the combustion phase of the embers to be suppressed if not extinguished, as illustrated in  FIG. 15 . 
     Specification of the Method of Suppressing Wildfire Embers in Accordance with the Present Invention Using a Misting Nozzle Supplied with a Hydraulically Pressurized Supply of Anti-Fire (AF) Liquid 
       FIG. 15  describes a method of suppressing combusting wildfire embers using a hydraulic misting nozzle supplied with a pressurized supply of anti-fire (AF) chemical liquid so as to produce a cloud of microscopic droplets for suppressing flying wildfire embers, as described above. 
     As described in  FIG. 15 , the method comprises the steps of: (a) hydraulically pressurizing a supply of anti-fire chemical liquid  6 E (e.g. AF31 anti-fire liquid from Hartindo Chemical) through the orifice or opening of a low, medium or high pressure misting nozzle  6 H as shown, for example in  FIGS. 16 through 19 , thereby forming a cloud of fine fog-like mist comprising billions of microscopic droplets generated each second, for real-time fire suppression in the vicinity of the cloud; (b) when the anti-fire chemical liquid droplets approach and encounter a burning wildfire ember, the anti-fire chemical liquid droplets flash evaporating, changing from a liquid to a gas state, causing the fire (i.e. combustion phase) of the burning embers to flash cool, and displacing oxygen around the burning ember as the vapor rapidly expands near the burning ember; and (c) the anti-fire (AF) chemical vapor breaking (i.e. inhibiting) the free-radical chemical reactions within the combustion phase of each burning wildfire ember entering the cloud during a wildfire storm. 
     This method of wildfire ember suppression has the advantage of attacking flying wildfire embers in three different ways: (i) lowering the temperature of the burning ember; (ii) displacing O2 from the burning ember required during combustion; and (iii) breaking the free-radical chemical reactions within the combustion phase of each burning wildfire ember. This method ensures that embers during a wildfire storm are effectively extinguished within the cloud of microscopic anti-fire (AF) liquid droplets supported outside the air vents provided in the building  17 , and those embers that may pass through this cloud of mist, will be filtered out by the ember filter blocks  17 D mounted in each rafter bridge beam  17 B shown in  FIGS. 8 and 8A . 
     Many different types of misting nozzles  6 H can be used in the system and method of suppressing wildfire embers according to the principles of the present invention. In  FIGS. 16A through 19B , several exemplary misting nozzle designs are shown and described. While these misting nozzles are implemented typically using stainless steel because this is a durable and rugged material capable of handling high pressured with corrosive effects, alternatively, these misting nozzle designs can be realized using plastic material as well, in a manner well known in the art.

     In the preferred embodiment, the environmentally-clean anti-fire (AF) chemical liquid is preferably Hartindo AF31 Total Fire Inhibitor, developed by Hartindo Chemicatama Industri of Jakarta, Indonesia, and commercially-available from Newstar Chemicals (M) SDN. BHD of Selangor Darul Ehsan, Malaysia, http://newstarchemicals.com/products.html. When so treated, combustible products will prevent flames from spreading, and confine fire to the ignition source which can be readily extinguished, or go out by itself. In the presence of a flame, the chemical molecules in both dry and wet coatings, formed with Hartindo AF 31  liquid, interferes with the free radicals (H+, OH—, O) involved in the free-radical chemical reactions within the combustion phase of a fire, and breaks these free-radical chemical reactions and extinguishes the fire&#39;s flames. 
     Specification of Method of Spraying Dried-Out/Burned-Out Lawn with Class-A Fire-Protected Green-Colored Lawn Spray to Prevent Lawn Combustion During Wildfire Storm Appearing on Parcel of Property with Building 
     To prevent a burned-out/dried-out lawn from combusting during an approaching wildfire, the mobile liquid spraying system  5  described above can be filled with the environmentally clean anti-fire (AF) liquid  6 E (i.e. AF21 AF liquid from Hartindo Chemical) and used to spray clean anti-fire (AF) chemical liquid over the dried out lawn. In the preferred embodiment, the environmentally-clean anti-fire (AF) chemical liquid is preferably Hartindo AF31 Total Fire Inhibitor, developed by Hartindo Chemicatama Industri of Jakarta, Indonesia, and commercially-available from Newstar Chemicals (M) SDN. 
     Alternatively, a bio-degradable, environmentally-clean (i.e. non-toxic) green-colored “grass paint” concentrate (e.g. commercially available as EnviroColor (TM) grass paint from EnviroColor of Cumming, Ga.) can be used to make an anti-fire (AF) green spray paint by adding 7 gallons of Hartindo AF31 anti-fire chemical liquid to 1 gallon of green-colored non-toxic biodegradable lawn paint concentrate, to produce a green-colored liquid formulation that can then be sprayed on the a dried-out lawn using the portable liquid spraying system  5  or like system. This clean anti-fire chemical lawn spray treatment should provide a significant defense against wildfires (i.e. a chemical wildfire break) by providing the dried grass with chemicals that break the free-radical chemical reactions in the combustion phase of a burning wildfire. The clean green paint spray coating may need to be reapplied every 4-8 weeks depending on the weather and moisture conditions. Different mixing ratios of Hartindo AF31 anti-fire chemical liquid to EnviroColor™ green paint concentrate (other than 7/1) may be used to provide dried out grass, with a stronger or weaker defense to wildfires and flying wildfire embers, without significantly compromising color while reducing the risks of wildfires to neighboring homes and buildings. 
     Similarly, Hartindo AF31 anti-fire chemical liquid can be mixed with EnviroColor brown mulch paint using similarly mixing ratios (e.g. 7/1) to provide mulch paint coverings that provide dried out grass with a stronger or weaker defense to wildfires and flying wildfire embers, and thereby reducing the risks of wildfires to neighboring homes and buildings.

       FIG. 22A  shows an exemplary mobile computing device deployed on the system network of the present invention, supporting (i) the mobile anti-fire spray management application of the present invention deployed as a component of the system network of the present invention as shown in  FIG. 9 , as well as (ii) conventional wildfire alert and notification systems as shown in  FIGS. 10 through 12C .  FIG. 22B  shows a system diagram for an exemplary mobile client computer system  11  deployed on the system network  1  of the present invention. 
       FIG. 22B  shows the system architecture of an exemplary mobile client computing system  11  that is deployed on the system network  1  and supporting the many services offered by system network servers  9 A,  9 B,  9 C,  9 D,  9 E. As shown, the mobile smartphone device  11  can include a memory interface  202 , one or more data processors, image processors and/or central processing units  204 , and a peripherals interface  206 . The memory interface  202 , the one or more processors  204  and/or the peripherals interface  206  can be separate components or can be integrated in one or more integrated circuits. The various components in the mobile device can be coupled by one or more communication buses or signal lines. Sensors, devices, and subsystems can be coupled to the peripherals interface  206  to facilitate multiple functionalities. For example, a motion sensor  210 , a light sensor  212 , and a proximity sensor  214  can be coupled to the peripherals interface  206  to facilitate the orientation, lighting, and proximity functions. Other sensors  216  can also be connected to the peripherals interface  206 , such as a positioning system (e.g. GPS receiver), a temperature sensor, a biometric sensor, a gyroscope, or other sensing device, to facilitate related functionalities. A camera subsystem  220  and an optical sensor  222 , e.g. a charged coupled device (CCD) or a complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS) optical sensor, can be utilized to facilitate camera functions, such as recording photographs and video clips. Communication functions can be facilitated through one or more wireless communication subsystems  224 , which can include radio frequency receivers and transmitters and/or optical (e.g. infrared) receivers and transmitters. The specific design and implementation of the communication subsystem  224  can depend on the communication network(s) over which the mobile device is intended to operate. For example, the mobile device  11  may include communication subsystems  224  designed to operate over a GSM network, a GPRS network, an EDGE network, a Wi-Fi or WiMax network, and a Bluetooth™ network. In particular, the wireless communication subsystems  224  may include hosting protocols such that the device  11  may be configured as a base station for other wireless devices. An audio subsystem  226  can be coupled to a speaker  228  and a microphone  230  to facilitate voice-enabled functions, such as voice recognition, voice replication, digital recording, and telephony functions. The I/O subsystem  240  can include a touch screen controller  242  and/or other input controller(s)  244 . The touch-screen controller  242  can be coupled to a touch screen  246 . The touch screen  246  and touch screen controller  242  can, for example, detect contact and movement or break thereof using any of a plurality of touch sensitivity technologies, including but not limited to capacitive, resistive, infrared, and surface acoustic wave technologies, as well as other proximity sensor arrays or other elements for determining one or more points of contact with the touch screen  246 . The other input controller(s)  244  can be coupled to other input/control devices  248 , such as one or more buttons, rocker switches, thumb-wheel, infrared port, USB port, and/or a pointer device such as a stylus. The one or more buttons (not shown) can include an up/down button for volume control of the speaker  228  and/or the microphone  230 . Such buttons and controls can be implemented as a hardware objects, or touch-screen graphical interface objects, touched and controlled by the system user. Additional features of mobile smartphone device  11  can be found in U.S. Pat. No. 8,631,358 incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. 
     Different Ways of Implementing the Mobile Client Machines and Devices on the System Network of the Present Invention 
     In one illustrative embodiment, the enterprise-level system network is realized as a robust suite of hosted services delivered to Web-based client subsystems  1  using an application service provider (ASP) model. In this embodiment, the Web-enabled mobile application  12  can be realized using a web-browser application running on the operating system (OS) (e.g. Linux, Application IOS, etc) of a mobile computing device  11  to support online modes of system operation, only. However, it is understood that some or all of the services provided by the system network  1  can be accessed using Java clients, or a native client application, running on the operating system of a client computing device, to support both online and limited off-line modes of system operation. In such embodiments, the native mobile application  12  would have access to local memory (e.g. a local RDBMS) on the client device  11 , accessible during off-line modes of operation to enable consumers to use certain or many of the system functions supported by the system network during off-line/off-network modes of operation. It is also possible to store in the local RDBMS of the mobile computing device  11  most if not all relevant data collected by the mobile application for any particular fire-protection spray project, and to automatically synchronize the dataset for user&#39;s projects against the master datasets maintained in the system network database  9 C 1 , within the data center  8  shown in  FIG. 4 . This way, when using an native application, during off-line modes of operation, the user will be able to access and review relevant information regarding any building spray project, and make necessary decisions, even while off-line (i.e. not having access to the system network). 
     As shown and described herein, the system network  1  has been designed for several different kinds of user roles including, for example, but not limited to: (i) public and private property owners, residents, fire departments, local, county, state and federal officials; and (ii) wildfire suppression administrators, contractors, technicians et al registered on the system network. Depending on which role, for which the user requests registration, the system network will request different sets of registration information, including name of user, address, contact information, etc. In the case of a web-based responsive application on the mobile computing device  11 , once a user has successfully registered with the system network, the system network will automatically serve a native client GUI, or an HTML5 GUI, adapted for the registered user. Thereafter, when the user logs into the system network, using his/her account name and password, the system network will automatically generate and serve GUI screens described below for the role that the user has been registered with the system network. 
     In the illustrative embodiment, the client-side of the system network  1  can be realized as mobile web-browser application, or as a native application, each having a “responsive-design” and adapted to run on any client computing device (e.g. iPhone, iPad, Android or other Web-enabled computing device)  11  and designed for use by anyone interested in managing, monitoring and working to defend against the threat of wildfires.

     The illustrative embodiments disclose the use of clean anti-fire chemicals from Hartindo Chemicatama Industri, particular Hartindo AAF31, for clinging to the surfaces of wood, lumber, and timber, and other combustible matter, wherever wildfires may travel. However, it is understood that alternative clean anti-fire chemical liquids may be used to practice the various wildfire suppression methods according to the principles of the present invention. 
     While the shed structure shown herein was of a general trapezoidal geometry, it is understood that the size and dimensions of the shed structure can be virtually any size that may fit on ones yard, and transported using conventional means and/or carriers. 
     These and other variations and modifications will come to mind in view of the present invention disclosure. 
     While several modifications to the illustrative embodiments have been described above, it is understood that various other modifications to the illustrative embodiment of the present invention will readily occur to persons with ordinary skill in the art. All such modifications and variations are deemed to be within the scope and spirit of the present invention as defined by the accompanying Claims to Invention.
