Sažetak
Every year an area of 350 million hectares is affected by a fire, of which 90% are forest fires. With economic losses, fires can result in human and animal losses and cause damage to health and the environment that cannot be fully compensated. Therefore, it is necessary to detect fires more efficiently, reliable and faster, and also to improve fire management and analyze affected areas. Remote sensing methods can provide a quick and efficient response to this problem and can provide better estimates and fire detection. Today, remote sensing methods are most commonly used in the post-fire management for the wildfire maps production, which can contribute to strategies for preventing, predicting, mitigating and better response to fire. By developing new systems, such as the European Copernicus program, the application of these methods has become publicly available in full extent with no charge. This paper presents the wildfire map-making procedure for the Makarska Riviera area in the Republic of Croatia based on Sentinel-2 satellite data and open source software using the normalized burned ratio (NBR) technique. Except for improving fire management and obtaining information on location and extent of damage, this procedure also allows monitoring the recovery of the affected environment.
