This work presents a new method of 3D reconstruction of the forest-fire front based on uncertain observations captured by remote sensing from UAVs within the forest-fire monitoring system.
The use of multiple cameras simultaneously to capture the scene and recognize its geometry including depth is proposed. Multi-directional observation allows perceiving and representing a volumetric nature of the fire front as well as the dynamics of the fire process.
The novelty of the proposed approach lies in the use of soft rough set to represent forest fire model within the discretized hierarchical model of the terrain and the use of 3D CNN (3D Convolutional Neural Network) to classify voxels within the reconstructed scene.
The developed method provides sufficient performance and good visual representation to fulfill the requirements of fire response decision makers.
