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...
متن کاملRisk Assessment: a Forest Fire Example
The concern of this paper is obtaining baseline values for the number of forest fires as a function of time and location and other explanatories. A model is developed and applied to a large data set from Federal lands in the state of Oregon. To proceed the data are grouped into small spatial-temporal cells (voxels). Fires are rare so there are many of these voxels with no fires. In fact there a...
متن کاملAn Assessment of Fire-Damaged Forest Using Spatial Analysis Techniques
Although forest fires are commonly accepted as a natural part of the ecosystem, frequent forest fires present great challenges to fire managers. In this research, ‘Fire Area Simulator’ has been used to simulate and study forest fire behaviour. Once the predicted perimeters were generated and compared to those shown in postmortem aerial infrared images, partial agreement was observed for the dir...
متن کاملModeling a Historic Forest Fire Using Gis and Farsite
Recent major wildfires may result from a combination of climate change and fuel buildup due to fire exclusion policies of the last century. Are such fires unique to the forests and climate of the 21st century or are they similar to historic fires? Historic fires are recorded primarily by eye witness accounts which seldom contain information needed to examine them with modern fire management too...
متن کاملForest Fire Damage Estimation Using Remote Sensing and GIS
Forest fires have been causing serious damages and threats in Turkey especially over Aegean and Mediterranean Regions. Damage assessment as the result of a forest fire occurred on 10th August 2009 in Seferihisar district of Izmir, Turkey was conducted in this study. SPOT 4 images obtained before (01.08.2008) and after (31.08.2009) the fire were used in this study. Several digital image processi...
