Forest fires: Land, Aerial and Space Detection

Endorsed by
Motivation

In extreme weather conditions, a fire start can rapidly develop into a large and intense wildfire with catastrophic effects. Timely and accurate detection requires the integration of fire behaviour and forest knowledge at strategic and tactical levels.

Potential Solutions

In extreme weather conditions, a fire start can rapidly develop into a large and intense wildfire with catastrophic effects. Timely and accurate detection requires the integration of fire behaviour and forest knowledge at strategic and tactical levels. Rapid wildfire detection is therefore fundamental to coordinating and performing a quicker and stronger initial attack. However, space detection does not currently meet the requirements for the rapid detection of fires, whereas the rate of false alarms in the detection of fire ignition remains relatively high.

Rationale & related CM function(s)

The reliability of networks of fire detection systems (cameras and sensors) needs to be improved
