Some emergent technologies such as ground-based, satellite-based remote sensing and distributed sensor networks systems have been used to detect forest fires in the early stages. In this study, a radio-acoustic sounding system with fine space and time resolution capabilities for continuous monitoring and early detection of forest fires is proposed. Simulations show that remote thermal mapping of a particular forest region by the proposed system could be a potential solution to the problem of early detection of forest fires.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessForest fire detectionRASSacoustic soundingradaremergency managementStatistical-AnalysisAutomatic DetectionCommittee MachinesDecision-MakingLidarManagementAvhrrAlgorithmOptimizationTemperatureArticle10.3390/s903014852-s2.0-63849227397
