  1. THE OBSERVATIONS FROM SATELLITES TO HELP IN THE STRUGGLE AGAINST FIRES. Romo, A., Casanova, J.L., Calle, A., and Sanz, J. LATUV - Remote Sensing Laboratory University of Valladolid, SPAIN alf@latuv.uva.es

  2. Index • Introduction • Fire’s phase and add value products from remote sensing data. • LATUV installation. • LATUV antennas. • LATUV-MODIS processing chain. • Remote sensing products. • LATUV: some project.

  3. Introduction • The use of space technologies provides a new perspective in the management of large event situations or natural disasters. • In the particular case of fire, this needs to have in real time information about these. • The information from satellites are ideal. • LATUV from 1993, send different fire information layer to fire fighter authority. • Here I present the different layer of information depending on the phase of the fire.

  4. Fire’s phase Area Remote sensing products Prevention Structural parameter Vulnerability Structural risk Contextual spatial information Infrastructures, towns, city, etc. Land use, combustible Alerts Vegetation stage Meteorological products Dynamic risk NDVI .vs. historical NDVI Humidity, wind, etc Fire risk Detection Hot spots detection Hot spot DDBB Fire alarm & Fire alarm Active fire Crisis time Fire monitoring Behavior prediction Fire evolution Fire line Propagator model Fire line evolution Post-crisis Damage estimation Damage evolution Burned area Burned area time evolution Fire’s phases and add value products from remote sensing data MODIS dataMSG, NOAA and FengYun dataGFS Data

  7. LATUV-MODIS processing chain • LATUV MODIS processing chain • The LATUV’s MODIS processing chain is carry out through a NASA Institutional Algorithm. • LATUV runs the next PGE. • All PGE are running in a cluster with 8 nodes. • HDFLook is used to project the final maps in equirectangular projection.

  9. BT band 21 BT band 31 NDVI LST Aggregate band 1 Aggregate band 2 Reflectivity band 2 LATUV-MODIS processing chain Fires MODIS basic products For each MODIS pass, LATUV uses to obtain the fire add value products: + MOD14

  10. Remote sensing products: ALERTS • Vegetation stage • This product is a report and it is composed by 8 maps and comments about these. • LATUV estimated the average NDVI maps, the maximum and minimum NDVI maps (each 16 days) from historical MODIS data (2000-2004). These are our historical reference, the average, the better and the worse year. • LATUV estimate the GREENESS index, the ratio and different between average and current NDVI maps and the historical NDVI tendency and current NDVI tendency. • The spatial resolution is QKM. • The product’s periodicity is twice/week.

  11. Remote sensing products: ALERTS Example over Spain

  12. Remote sensing products: ALERTS Meteorological products The weather products are obtaining from GFS data. The weather forecast products were: ground temperature, humidity, accumulated rainfall, Cloudiness, CAPE instability index and wind speed. The final resolution of this product is 10x10 km2 through “krigging’s interpolation”. The product’s periodicity is each 3 hours. Wind Speed Forecast Air Humidity Forecast Air Temperature Forecast

Risk zone No-Risk zone  + 1.0 · ---> L1 = LOW Extrapolated NDVI NDVI, current day  + 2.0 · ---> L2 = MODERATE current day  + 2.5 · ---> L3 = HIGH  + 3.0 · ---> L4 = EXTREME Time Province Average Remote sensing products: ALERTS Fire risk maps: Vegetation decrease algorithm For each aggregate NDVI pixel (1x1 km2): • Fitting of the MVC images to a parabolic spline: Period: 2 months----> 6 NDVI-MVC. • Calculation of the “residual”: difference between the NDVI extrapolated by the spline and the real NDVI of the current day Risk Quantification: Designation of fire hazard from the distribution of residuals in provincial normalisation.

  15. LST Risk threshold L1 L2 L4 L3 NDVI Remote sensing products: ALERTS Fire risk maps: Stress Algorithm • LST vs. NDVI : Indicator of the level of the real evapotranspiration. • The Ts vs. NDVI relationship analyzed cell by cell can be represented by means a linear relationship. • The slope “m” characterizes the humidity level of the whole cell. This humidity level is assigned to the whole cell (10x10 km2) m>0 Exceptional situations with very high humidity content. m<0 Normal situation, to be analyzed The slope increases -> Evapotranspiration decreases Risk threshold: m= -30 m<-30 --->L1 =LOW m<-50 --->L2 = MODERATE m<-70 --->L3 = HIGH m<-90 --->L4 = EXTREME

MODIS image show the fire’s smoke in Asturias and Galicia´s region. The fire risk over this area have extreme risk fire (magenta and red colours).

  18. Remote sensing products:DETECTION • Operation • When the MSG, TERRA, AQUA, NOAA and FENGYUN satellites pass over the LATUV, Hot Spot maps are create for different regions in Europe. • MODIS-Terra and MODIS-Aqua satellites • The hot spot detection from Terra and Aqua satellites is carry out through a NASA Institutional Algorithm. • LATUV runs the PGE30-version 4.0.1. • In the case that a pixel appears on fire, the temperature and extension are obtaining by Dozier’s method. • With fire temperature and extension, we estimated the Power fire through Stefan-Boltzmann law. • We compare the real time hot spots with hot spot DDBB and eliminate the false alarm. • The new hot spots table is convert in shape vector file.
