Item Progress in the remote sensing of veld fire occurrence and detection: A review(Wiley, 2023) Graham, Earl; Dube, Timothy; iiMpakairi, Kudzai S.Our research provides a detailed overview of the progress in remotely sensed fire monitoring techniques, which have been developed and employed for fire occurrence and detection. Our overview is provided from a literature search of English-peer reviewed articles, conference proceedings and scientific book sections published between the periods of 1980 and 2019. Literature reveals that historically, fire detection through remotely sensed techniques has mainly occurred through ground-based, airborne and satellite systems. Mathematical models, such as decision tree models, Species Distribution Models, Dynamic Global Vegetation Models and Global Climate Models, have also been employed alongside satellite systems to facilitate a greater understanding of fire dynamics and its susceptibility to changes in ecological and climatic variables.
