6th International Workshop of the EARSeL Special Interest Group (SIG) on Forest Fires
27th September, 2007 – 29th September, 2007
The workshop is organised by the Laboratory of Forest Management and
Remote Sensing, Faculty of Forestry and Natural Environment, Aristotle
University of Thessaloniki in collaboration with the University of
Alcalá (Spain) and the Joint Research Centre of the European Commission.

Since the main subject of the workshop will be the operational use of remote sensing in forest fire management, paper contributions are expected to focus on the operational use of remote sensing in:
pre-fire planning and management,
fire detection and monitoring, and
post-fire evaluation and management.
The main activities of the Workshop will include lectures given by invited speakers, poster sessions, a round-table discussion session and a field excursion.
Selected papers presented during the workshop will be included in a special issue of a scientific journal related to forest fires and remote sensing. Previous workshops resulted in the publication of special issues of the International Journal of Remote Sensing, the Remote Sensing of Environment and the Journal of Geophysical Research. Full texts of the lectures given and the extended abstracts of papers presented will be included in the Proceedings book of the workshop.
