description | Indonesia is a country that has vulnerablity to land and forest fires danger. This is not out of the existencies of peatland in Indonesia which are quite wide and mostly located in Sumatara and Kalimantan. The nature of peatlands are capable to store water in large quantities, but the surface dries quickly and become flammable during the dry season. This research aims to perform mapping area that vulnerable to land and forest fires danger based on the physical parameters. The results of this research can be used as the basis for developing an early warning system for land and forest fires in Indonesia. This research uses GIS (Geographic Information System) for processing mapping of physical parameters which consist of Land Use Map, Topography Map and Soil Map in Sumatra and Kalimantan to get the forest and land fires danger map. The results of the mapping areas that vulnerable to forest and land fire based on the physical parameters have indicates uniform patterns with the distribution and density of hotspots in the Sumatra and Kalimantan over the last 10 years (2006-2015). It is confirm with the accuracy test where the number of hotspots during the last 10 years both in Sumatera and Kalimantan area is exactly vulnerable up to very vulnerable to land and forest fires danger by 74% |
