Abstract
Many forest fires occur across the globe each year, which destroy life and property, and strongly impact ecosystems. In recent years, wildland fires and altered fire disturbance regimes have become a significant management and science problem affecting ecosystems and wildland/urban interface cross the United States and global. In this paper, we discuss the estimation of 504 probability models for forecasting fire risk for 14 fuel types, 12 months, one day/week/month in advance, which use 19 years of historical fire data in addition to meteorological and vegetation variables. MODIS land products are utilized as a major data source, and a logistical binary regression was adopted to solve fire forecast probability. In order to better modeling the change of fire risk along with the transition of seasons, some spatial and temporal stratification strategies were applied. In order to explore the possibilities of real time prediction, the Matlab distributing computing toolbox was used to accelerate the prediction. Finally, this study give an evaluation and validation of predict based on the ground truth collected. Validating results indicate these fire risk models have achieved nearly 70% accuracy of prediction and as well MODIS data are potential data source to implement near real-time fire risk prediction.
