Outline of a shared online fire information system for S.E. Asia Chris Elvidge NOAA National Geophysical Data Center chris.elvidge@noaa.gov January 21, 2003
Current Situation • Multiple data providers. • Large numbers of interested parties. • Value added products, such as smoke transport predictions, require combination of multiple data sources and may require operation of a model. • The level of effort required to generate all the products of interestis cost prohibitive for any one country or agency.
On-Line Fire Information Systems • Can provide interactive access to data. • Can generate overlay displays of fires with user selected background maps or images. • Can provide interactive links to models, such as HYSPLIT. • Once a product suite is standardized, daily reports can be automatically generated in html or pdf format. This would be advantageous for the operational users. For example a daily report containing maps and images could be generated for Sumatra. This could be automatically delivered to a subscription list and could also be selected from a daily report list posted at a web site.
Examples of On-Line Fire Information Systems • MAFF (S.E. Asia) http://www.affrc.go.jp/ANDES/ (graphical images of hotspots and fire risk) • MSS (Indonesia/Malaysia) http://www.nea.gov.sg/metsin/ (graphical images of haze and hotspots) • MMS (Indonesia/Malaysia) http://www.kjc.gov.my/english/service/climate/fdrs1.html (Fire Danger Rating graphical images) • NOAA (USA) http://nhis7.wwb.noaa.gov/website/SSDFire/viewer.htm (ArcIMS - interactive display of hotspots from multiple sensors) • USGS (USA) http://geomac2.cr.usgs.gov/ (ArcIMS – interactive overlay of hotspots and other geospatial data) • IBAMA (Brazil) http://www.dpi.inpe.br/proarco/bdqueimadas/ (interactive overlay of hotspots and other geospatial data - INPE TerraLib with MySql)
What do we mean by SHARED? • Data products drawn from multiple providers. • There may be more than one service provider • (for different geographical regions, languages, • or user commuties). • Share scripts, applets, API’s, models.

Question:Does the group want to work on building a shared fire information system for S.E. Asia?
