As already noted in several researches for burnt area assessment based on active fire data, it is necessary to use area correction procedure. This is primarily due to the fact that the data used have a rather low spatial resolution which can lead to overestimation of burnt area. The present work is devoted to the development of burnt area correction for MODIS Collection 6 (MC6) active fire data. It is shown that MC6 has some features that can significantly affect burnt area assessment. A correction is developed on the basis of 5474 fires detected by MODIS and mapped using high resolution images (10–30 m). Total area of mapped fires is 9.09 million ha. The new correction formula is developed using the regression analysis of active fire geometry areas and high-resolution areas. It is shown that, using the proposed correction, Russia’s burnt area assessment based on active fire detection can be performed at an accuracy of about 4 %. Such accuracy, according to the authors, is sufficient for analyzing trends and dynamics of forest fires over Russia in the 21st century using MC6 data.
Keywords: burnt area, wild fire detection, burnt area assessment error, satellite data, monitoring, MODIS
