In recent years, satellite methods and technologies have been actively used to support forest fires monitoring and extinguishing measures. At present there are homogeneous archives of forest fire observation data on the whole territory of the Russian Federation for the period from 2001 to the present. Such homogeneous archives of data are available, in particular, in the VEGA-Les information system (http://forest.geosmis.ru/). In Russia, the Forest Fires Remote Monitoring Information System of the Federal Forestry Agency (ISDM-Rosleskhoz, https://nffc.aviales.ru) has been in operation since 2005. During the operation of the system various characteristics of fires detected from satellite data were recorded in it. For those fires, which have been registered by ISDM-Rosleskhoz there is recorded information about territories where these fires were active and their level of protection, and information on which fires were not attempted to be extinguished or extinguishing was terminated for them. In the present work on the basis of available forest fires observation homogeneous archives and information about territories fires have been registered on and extinguishing measures for them, samples of fires action on which was or was not taken were formed. Using these samples, a study was conducted on the characteristics of fire area distribution, depending on the level of protection of the territory and information on extinguishing/not extinguishing specific fires. The results of this study are presented in this paper. It is determined that distribution of fire areas really depends on the quality of the firefighting measures organization on given territories. It was found that higher levels of protection provide larger difference of fire areas distributions from the distribution of non-extinguished fires It is also shown that such trends are observed both for high and low flammability years. In conclusion, possible ways of the received results application for creation of objective criteria for assessment of forest fires protection measures efficiency are briefly discussed.
Keywords: forest fires, statistical methods of data processing, Earth remote sensing, forest fire zoning, forest fire protection zones, assessment of the effectiveness of forest fire protection, information system for remote monitoring of forest fires
