Abstract:
Systems, software, and computer implemented methods can be used to predict wildfires based on biophysical and spatiotemporal data. A method includes receiving a request for a wildfire prediction for at least one geographical area. At least one biophysical indicator is identified. Each biophysical indicator provides biophysical data for the at least one geographical area. The at least one biophysical indicator is provided to a convolutional neural network (CNN). The CNN is trained using ground truth data that includes historical information about wildfires for at least one ground truth geographical area. The CNN is used to generate at least one prediction for wildfire risk for the at least one geographical area. The at least one prediction is provided responsive to the request.
