- Forest-district staff planning seasonal fire-prevention work
- Worth noticing
- The ranking uses assumed, uncalibrated weights; flagged cover changes are for field verification, not a fire-hazard assessment.
Field notes
The demonstration uses open Forest Data Bank records and Copernicus Sentinel-2 imagery for Nadleśnictwo Węgliniec, showing 5,150 stands across 15.9k hectares. It reports 36 stands with cover changes across 2025–26 and flags 88 stand centres more than 750 metres from a road; the page cautions that satellite signals and distance measures need on-the-ground verification, and that the ranking weights are not calibrated against fire data.
