| Popis: | Almost all forest fires in Liaoning were caused by the act of men. Between 15:00-19:00, which is when the frequencies of human activities and the occurrence of fire peak, Liaoning is out of the path of the polar-orbiting satellites, making these 4 hours the blind spot domain in fire-incidence monitoring. At the same time, the trend of fire accidents changed quickly under the influence of local meteorological conditions, leading to the demand for a higher temporal resolution. Therefore, there is an urgent need to utilize the Himawari satellite in the forest fire intensity monitoring so as to compensate for the drawbacks of the polar-orbiting satellites. By improving the forest fire identification model of the Himawari-8 satellite, a forest fire monitoring done every ten minutes was realized , thereby enhancing the effectiveness of fire monitoring and rescue within a given period of time. |
