Current Trend of Wildfires in the United States

The purpose of this report is to analyze the current tendency and seriousness of forest fires in the United States and how remote driving helps alleviate this phenomenon by recommending the target user to use a drones reconnaissance aircraft It is to indicate. Currently, catastrophic droughts occur throughout the country, so there is no time suitable for recommending the use of technologies that seems to be a future method. This report explains the use of drone for monitoring and reconnaissance of drones, the use of drone for fire fighting activities, and the potential benefits primarily by using these as a tool.

Wildfires are mainly seasonal threats and occur primarily in hot and dry summers. Currently they are burning almost all year round in the western United States, Canada, and Australia. In May 2016, the state of Alberta suffered damage from over 350 miles of forest fires, 80,000 residents of Fort McMurray were evacuated and seriously damaged. Global warming is suspected to be a major cause of the increase in forest fires. The impact of global warming in the northern region is particularly serious. Temperature rises faster than the whole earth, snow melts prematurely, and the forest dries faster than before. Dry winter means less land water, excessive heat can cause an increase in light, which is usually the most devastating wildfire trigger.

It is difficult to predict the situation of California's future forest fires, but many studies have been published to prove that wild fires have a major impact on the state and the western part of the United States of America. Because California is a densely populated state in the mountainous area, there are unique geographical and meteorological parameters related to wild fires. Few forecasts of Southern California's forest fire activity are expected, and some activities completed are contradictory. In addition, the prediction model differs according to the general cycle model (GCM) used to estimate the change in forest fire activity. However, a recent study by Yue et al in 2014. I am trying to better estimate and avoid differences in past forest fire activity prediction models. In this study, researchers found that the wildfire activity in the mountainous areas of southwest California and the Sierra Nevada mountains increased over the next several decades due to the rise in surface temperature.
