| Özet |
| Wildland fire managers require spatially explicit and comprehensive information on fire risk for long-term planning. This planning should focus on formulating protection and prevention strategies that are appropriate in high-risk areas. However, fire risk mapping is an extremely difficult and complex process requiring expertise in fire behaviour, human activities, fuels modeling, topography, ecology, and Geographical Information System (GIS). This paper evaluates and presents fire risk through spatial analysis and mapping. Spatial analysis of fire risk maps was also made to determine the efficiency of many factors that influence fire risk–slope, insolation, fuel and human activities. As a result, The Fire Risk Index was developed to incorporate Landsat imagery and stand type map produced from interpreted aerial photograph and ground measurements. Application of the fire risk mapping was tested in Korudağ Forest … |
