| Özet |
| While being an integral part of many ecosystems, forest fires can also have detrimental effects on forests and their management, resulting in high suppression costs, great damages in lost timber, real estate and recreational values, and even loss of life. To minimize the threat of loss from wildfires, fire managers must be able to plan ahead the protection strategies that are appropriate for local areas. A prerequisite for this planning is the ability to assess and map, for broad areas, the local potential for a major fire to occur. Using such geospatial information, managers can establish priorities for prevention activities to reduce the wildfire danger and for allocating suppression forces to improve the probability of quickly controlling fires in areas of high concern. The launch of satellite sensors with increased spatial resolution may improve the accuracy and reduce the cost of fuel and fire potential mapping. This paper evaluates and presents fire potential through analysis and mapping. Fire potential mapping was considered from a remote sensing perspective by assessing and mapping general vegetation complexes with the use of Landsat TM data and Geographic Information System. Spatial analysis of fire potential maps were also made to determine the efficiency of many factors that influence fire potential–slope, insolation, fuel. As a result, an attempt was made to develop a Fire Potential Index. This index was based on tree type, stand closure, stand age, insolation, and topographic features. These properties were derived from classification from the Landsat imagery. The Fire Potential Index model was developed to incorporate both satellite and stand … |
