How AI is learning to predict wildfires
A European climate research institute is using artificial intelligence (AI) to more accurately predict the probability of wildfires across the globe. The European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) has created a new Probability of Fire model, which uses machine-learning methods to analyze a wider set of data for more precise predictions of the wildfire locations. By incorporating fuel, such as vegetation levels that could help the blaze to spread, and sources of fire ignition into the analysis alongside predictions of weather conditions, ECMWF can go further than predicting just fire danger, and look at the likelihood of a fire igniting in a particular location.
