| Title : | INSPECTION OF BURNING AREAS CAUSED BY FOREST FIRE IN DOI SUTHEP-PUI NATIONAL PARK THROUGH DATA OBTAINED FROM LANDSAT 8 SATELLITE AND NORMALIZED BURN RATIO |
| Abstract : | The objective of this research is to inspect areas burned by a forest fire in Doi Suthep-Pui National Park in Muang District, Chiang Mai Province, Thailand, with data from the Landsat 8 satellite and Normalized Burn Ratio (NBR). The research was conducted by analyzing data from the Landsat 8 satellite between 2017 and 2021 in pre- and postfire periods. Data were analyzed using NBR before analyzing to find burning areas through ∆NBR. The accuracy of results was evaluated point by point using false color composites (7(R),5(G),4(B)) by creating 60 random points. Analysis results revealed that accuracy in the study period was 81.66%, 81.66%, 83.33%, 81.66%, and 86.66%, respectively. Moreover, when inspecting the consistency of analysis results using the Kappa statistic, it was found that, during the study period, the Kappa coefficient was 0.78, 0.81, 0.82, 0.82, and 0.84, respectively. As a result, it could be concluded that false color composites (7(R), 5(G), 4(B)), NBR, and ∆ NBR can reliably and consistently be used for specifying areas burned by forest fires. Relevant agencies can apply this case study to inspect further burning areas caused by forest fires. |
