I am currently developing a Geographic Information System to provide
assistance in the prediction of forest fire outbreaks, as part of a
MSc Computation thesis undertaken at UMIST, England. I would welcome
any details of experiences of such sytems or of dealing with forest
fires in general.
In addition does anyone on the mailing list know of any bodies or
organisations which utilise GISs to help cope with the effects of
natural hazards? I am very interested in working on such projects
after completion of my degree, and would like to know how to move
into this field, as either paid or voluntary work.
With thanks,
Seth Girvin
