Techniques for Wildfire Detection and Monitoring: Advanced Webinar

Part One: Using the Fire Mapping Tools to Map Fires

This session will provide an overview of remote sensing for wildfire detection and mapping, as well as an overview of the QGIS Fire Mapping Tool (FMT). Attendees will go through a handson exercise using the FMTQGIS FMT is freelyavailable and can detect active fires and burn scars using Landsat data. This tool can identify smaller fires that may not be in the Monitoring Trends in Burn Severity program.
