Abstract | Many Australian fire managers rely on fuel maps derived from vegetation classifications and time-since-fire via an accumulation curve (e.g. Phoenix Rapidfire). However fuel maps derived using this method lack potentially critical information about pockets of high and low fuel loads. This is important because a poor understanding of fuels was found to be a critical factor in investigations of both the Margaret River and Lancefield prescribed burn escapes. A potential solution for this problem is the use of LiDAR to create spatially-explicit fuel information. |
