Abstract:

To investigate the spread characteristics of forest fires under complex topography and multi-factor coupling conditions, this study develops an optimized forest fire spread model that integrates terrain-slope correction, wind-field effects, and vegetation indices. First, Gaussian filtering was applied to correct the digital elevation model (DEM) to reduce noise, and terrain slope and aspect were derived from the refined DEM. Subsequently, the enhanced vegetation index (EVI) was introduced to improve the forest fire spread prediction model, enhancing prediction accuracy in areas with dense vegetation cover. By combining the model with CA, the predicted fire spread can be visualized. Finally, the predicted fire variable values were compared with the observed data from Muli Tibetan Autonomous County to verify the scientific validity and effectiveness of the model. The results indicate that the model is highly sensitive to vegetation changes in low EVI value ranges, with an effect size of 0.870, suggesting that the introduction of EVI improves fire prediction accuracy in areas with high vegetation cover. The improved fire spread model achieved an area prediction error rate and perimeter error rate of 29.40% and 5.79%, respectively, which are lower than the pre-improvement values of 44.27% and 16.99%. The Kappa coefficient of the improved model is 0.8238, which is closer to 1 compared to the pre-improvement model.
