Özet
In Turkey, along the coast zone from Marmara region to east of Mediterranean region, there are forests which have been classified as first-degree fire sensitive areas. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) tools have been effectively used for many forestry activities as well as forest fire protection purposes. This study aims to determine fire protection zones in forested areas by the capabilities of GIS tools, considering forest road network. Terrestrial fire protection zones are affected by the technical capabilities of the fire-trucks, with respect to effective reaching distance of the fire-hoses from both sides of the roads. The study was applied in Forestry Enterprise Chief of Samandag located in eastern Mediterranean city of Turkey. Fire protection zones were defined according to terrain structure and ground slope classes by using GIS tools, and then, the percentage of the protected forest areas was determined. The results …
