Satellite products in the fire analysis

Used for detecting and locating fires in sparsely populated areas. Analysis of the size of the fire and its consequences. Alerting for the greater probability of fire in some areas. In presented analysis satellite products are used from: MODIS (Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectrometer) on board of polar-orbiting satellites Terra and Aqua, Land SAF products measured by radiometer SEVIRI (Spinning Enhanced Visible and Infrared Imager) on board of geostationary satellite MSG (Meteosat Second Generation).

Fire Risk Map

In 1987. Canadian Forest Fire Weather Index System (CFFWIS), created indices combining climate elements in the fire risk forecast. Fine Fuel Moisture Code (FFMC), Duff Moisture Code (DMC), Drought Code (DC), Initial Spread Index (ISI), BuildUp Index (BUI), Fire Weather Index (FWI). FRM (Fire Risk Map) is calculated using 24, 48 and 72 hour ECMWF forecasts for: 2 m temperature , relative humidity , wind speed 10 m, precipitation 24 h, vegetation measured by satellites.

Analysis of forest fire on island of Braˇ c

The fire started on the July 14, 2011 on the western side of island of Braˇ c at about 14h local time and was extinguished in the evening of the July 17, 2011. The fire burned down 56 km2 of pine trees, bushes and low vegetation, vineyards and olive groves (Mifka and Vuˇ ceti´ c, 2012).

Conclusion

Both polar and geostationary satellites have their advantages and disadvantages in detection and monitoring. Satellite products are more accurate than the products obtained from conventional measurements because they use a larger amount

  • f data in the calculation.

Monitoring of the course of fire and accompanying weather conditions allows more accurate and timely warnings for the fire department. Next goal is to verify satellite products for Croatian coastal area.
