Indonesia is one country with very large
forest holdings. As a country with an area of 93.92 million hectares of forest in 2005 (data from
the Ministry of Forestry) will certainly be a lot of face many problems. One of
the problems that arise on the sustainability of the existence of the forest is the forest fire problem. Forest fires are a
serious problem,because apart the reduced impact of forest area, another effect
are such as pollution andenvironmental sustainability in the forest itself.
With the impacts, of course there is very
important to monitor the local hotspots in the area of forest in Indonesia. Not
only that, with very large forests resulted in problems inmonitoring. One of the
popular activities undertaken to monitoring in realtime, for example using data from MODIS or NOAA satellites. However, with the area so wouldrequires
enormous resources.
