Description
Summary:Sentinel-2 imagery can identify forest and land fires in underground parts, surface fires, and crown fires. The dNBR and RBR spectral indices on Sentinel-2 images proved accurate in identifying. This study analyzed the index value for burned area mapping in wetland areas using Sentinel-2 imagery data in 2019 and hotspot data from the MODIS data. The indices used to identify the burned area and the severity of the fire was the differenced normalized burn ratio (dNBR) and relativized burn ratio (RBR). Visual validation tests were performed by comparing RGB composite images to check the appearance before and after combustion with dNBR and RBR results. The dNBR value accuracy was 91.5%, and for a kappa, the accuracy was 89.58%. The RBR accuracy was 92.9%, and the kappa accuracy was 0.91. The results confirmed that in the Banjarbaru area, RBR was more accurate in identifying burned areas than dNBR; both indices can be used for burned area mapping in wetland areas.
