Summary: | Forest Fire Susceptibility Map analysis is conducted to determine of
factors ensured the region has the potential of forest fires in the area Gunung
Merbabu National Park.
Gunung Merbabu National Park has experienced a fire for six times in the
2006-2008 period, the total area burned 475.9 ha. Study is come in research
fieldwork, matching potential damaged area to calculate the real
condition. Calculation is an accurate map of forest fire Susceptibility to establish
frame work an early warning system.
This research tried to develop a method to Susceptibility Map in the
Framework of an Early Warning System, choose the most effective prediction
using RS/GIS tools in a Forest fire-prone area, case study at Gunung Merbabu
National Park.
Tree components analysis for the determination of areas that have
the potential for forest fires: Analyzing Weather (Temperature, Humidity, Rainfall,
Wind Speed and Wind Direction), Analyzing Topography, Analyzing Land Cover.
ArcGIS software incorporates an advanced connectivity model to accurately
characterize real-world multimodal networks. Calculation to weighting used
Qualitative method, process was prediction area have potential forest fire: High,
Moderate and Low.
Results is Susceptibility Map in the frame work of an Early Warning
System aims to provide a warning so that the recipient can immediately alert
information and act according to the conditions, circumstances, and time. The
main principle is provide information quickly, accurately, on target, easily
accepted, easily understood, credible and sustainable.
