Listen "Fighting forest fires with precision, can better methods prevent mega disasters? | Coffeesodes 26"
Episode Synopsis
This coffeesode discusses a spatial feature-based (STF) method for detecting forest fires using Himawari-8/9 satellite imagery and SRTM DEM data in the context of recent forest fires in L.A. The discussion focuses on a research based on STF method which reconstructs surface temperature using a Random Forest model, which outperforms other machine learning models tested. Fire detection leverages the difference between reconstructed and observed surface temperatures, combined with a spatial contextual algorithm. The research discussed has a resulting algorithm exhibits high accuracy, achieving a zero omission error rate and a comprehensive evaluation index exceeding 0.74 when compared to existing fire detection datasets.
