Remote sensing as the measure to monitor disasters has the advantage of temporal resolution and large scale. Since “5.6 catastrophe” in 1987, China began to monitor forest fires broadly. In the summer of 2002, many forest/grass fires occurred in the Daxing’anling Mountains, and the damage was very heavy. In the forest fires fighting, the meteorological satellites play an important role in monitoring the fires. Especially the FY serial meteorological satellites have the advantage of large scale monitoring and characteristics of being in time and exact, and get good results. Remote sensing techniques have been used in many aspects of forest/grass fires research, including burned area and fireline intensity evaluation, post fire environment monitoring etc. Remote sensing as the measure to monitor disasters has the advantage of temporal resolution and large scale.
