Micro Forest Fire Detection

Investigation of forest fire hazard areas in Golestan province based on fire risk system index (FRSI) using the technique (GIS)

Abstract  Fire in natural resources is one of the crises that causes irreparable damage to ecosystems and the environment every year. The purpose of this research is to attempt to study areas of risk aversion and to prepare a map of forest fire hazard area by integrating topographic data and other additional information from a GIS system for Golestan province. In order to carry out this resear...

Forest Fire Detection by Satellites for Fire Control

Infrared sensors on board satellites have been widely used to collect statistics on fires, but not for fire control. Since the polar-orbiting satellites cover the northern Earth latitudes several times a day, their data are particularly suitable for detecting boreal forest fires. Currently, radiometers on board NOAA and ERS-2 satellites are used for operational fire management in Finland. Telef...

Forest Fire Research in Finland

Effective wildfire suppression and diminished use of prescribed burning in forestry has clearly eliminated the role of fire in Finnish forest ecosystems as compared to pristine stands. The reintroduction of fire back to nature has therefore been suggested in various instructions, forest certification and forest conservation programmes. At the same time it is recognized that possible climate cha...
