Il sistema FIRE-SAT per il monitoraggio post-incendio: il caso-studio dell'incendio di Potenza del 21-23 luglio 2015

Remote sensing data can usefully support the fire management operational applications in different spatial and temporal scales with a synoptic point of view and low cost technologies. The satellite monitoring systems together with other geographic information, historical data and field measurements, can provide the fire management operators useful tools of fire danger assessment, fire prevention, fire-fighting and post-fire planning. The FIRE-SAT monitoring system was applied to a fire event which developed in a wildland-urban interface area of the Potenza town (Basilicata, Italy) on July 2015, in order to assess the fire occurrence danger, to evaluate the fire effects and to simulate the fire propagation.
