Sažetak

The objective of this study is to modeling and mapping the Forest fire risk in the region of Aures situated in Northeast of Algeria, through the application of multi-criteria analysis methods to integrate geographic information systems (GIS) and remote sensing. The methodology is based on a weighted linear combination of three parameters that influence the initiation and propagation of a forest fire. These are vegetation, topography and anthropogenic index. The result is a vulnerability map classified into four classes according to pixel values. very high risk class forms 18,28% of the study area, high risk class forms 42,42%, moderate risk class forms 5,24% and 34,05% of the area is low risk.
