The Development of Forest Fire Forecasting System
using Internet GIS and Satellite Remote Sensing
Figure 4. Forest Fire Hazard Index Presentation System
Conclusion
In conclusion, the information of forest in the specific area can be easily searched, analyzed and managed through Internet GIS and Remote Sensing. It makes possible for this forest fire forecasting system to predict and to prevent forest fire in effective and scientific because it can assume exact forest fire hazard index in real time and present in proper time. Especially forest fire hazard index was presented in real time integrated with meteorological data through internet web base to forest fire task officer and local citizens without time lagging. It also allows to analyze with spatial modeling and monitoring in the predicted area. Therefore it was clarified that the forecasting system using Web based GIS is prominent for management and prevention of forest fire.
