Fighting Fire with Citizen Science
Participants will be able to collect data on vegetation cover, providing crucial insights into the fuel load and potential fire intensity. Furthermore, the mobile application allows users to report a forest fires event, including the environmental impact and damage assessments, facilitating a comprehensive understanding of the consequences of forest fires. By engaging citizens as active contributors, the spotFIRE project aspires to raise awareness to improve fire prevention efforts from the general public and support the implementation of fire management strategies.
