An integrated approach for tactical monitoring and data-driven spread forecasting of wildfires
(2017-05-09)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyIn recent times there have been increasing efforts to integrate technology into wildfire management, especially in the fields of tactical monitoring and simulation. On the one hand, thermal infrared imaging (TIR) systems ... -
Assessment of the predictive capabilities of different modelling tools to forecast fire effects in residential compartments
(Universidad de Cantabria, 2017)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyResidential occupancies are the most common type of buildings where compartment fires occur. In order to provide fire protection in these occupancies and thus to significantly reduce the number of future victims, the ... -
Automatic detection of wildfire active fronts from aerial thermal infrared images
(2015)
Conference report
Open AccessInfrared (IR) imagery presents a great applicability in the field of wildland fires. However, most of the research conducted thus far has either focused on pre- and post- fire applications or relied on sophisticated ... -
Compartment and façade large scale tests: behaviour comparison of different insulating materials in case of fire
(Czech Technical University, 2015)
Conference report
Open AccessFire safety community is currently concerned about the response of some widely used insulating materials in case of fire, due to the fact that existing regulations do not show how these materials behave in real conditions, ... -
Computing wildfire behaviour metrics from CFD simulation data
(International Association of Wildland Fire, 2019)
Conference lecture
Open AccessIn this article, we demonstrate a new post-processing methodology which can be used to analyse CFD wildfire simulation outputs in a model-independent manner. CFD models produce a great deal of quantitative output but require ... -

Inverse modelling in wildfire spread forecasting: towards a data-driven system
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2018-11-30)
Doctoral thesis
Open AccessWildfires are an ecological phenomenon inherent to earth dynamics and widely spread over the globe. In addition to the environmental impact, when wildfires grow beyond controllable magnitudes, they pose a principal threat ... -

On the use of compact thermal cameras for quantitative wildfire monitoring
(2018)
Conference report
Restricted access - publisher's policyIn recent times, there have been significant developments in remote sensing techniques applied to forest fire research. In particular, infrared (IR) imagery has proved effective to measure variables such as rate of spread, ... -
Short term forecasting of large scale wind-driven wildfires using thermal imaging and inverse modelling techniques
(Imprensa da Universidade de Coimbra, 2014-10-31)
Part of book or chapter of book
Restricted access - publisher's policyA key factor in decision-making process during a wildfire incident is counting on the forecast of how the fire is likely to behave in different fuels, weather conditions and terrain. Wildfire models and simulators attempt ... -
Short-term fire front spread prediction using inverse modelling and airborne infrared images
(2016-10-03)
Article
Open AccessA wildfire forecasting tool capable of estimating the fire perimeter position sufficiently in advance of the actual fire arrival will assist firefighting operations and optimise available resources. However, owing to limited ... -
Thermal infrared video stabilization for aerial monitoring of active wildfires
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2021)
Article
Open AccessMeasuring wildland fire behaviour is essential forfire science and fire management. Aerial thermal infrared (TIR)imaging provides outstanding opportunities to acquire suchinformation remotely. Variables ...
