Abstract Natural disastrous events are part and parcel of our times and do occur when we least expect it to strike us. Disasters which take place in the vicinity of human livelihood due to natural causes, such as forest fires, tsunami, earthquakes, floods, storms etc., the consequence or toll on lives and structures is colossal. Such mishaps emphasize and prove the fact that nature is the true master and has gone beyond human resistivity or control mechanisms by miles. Each of such mishaps provide crucial lessons or experiences to learn from. Fortunately, several disaster management approaches and technology advancements help with definitive affirmative knowledge and analysis, mitigating impacts to human lives and structures. This paper survey's existing approaches in managing forest fires. We focus on specific aspects with forest fire disaster, such as: fire localization, fire propagation modeling, victim localization, victim health evaluation, and logistics involved with securing victims to safety. A comprehensive discussion on the state-of-the-art works in managing forest fires is presented. Finally, this survey highlights open challenges and research trends in handling forest fire disaster management systems.

管理森林火灾的系统方法调查

摘要 自然灾害事件是我们时代的重要组成部分，并且确实发生在我们最不希望它袭击我们的时候。由于自然原因，例如森林火灾、海啸、地震、洪水、风暴等，在人类生计附近发生的灾害，对生命和结构造成的后果或损失是巨大的。此类事故强调并证明了一个事实，即大自然是真正的主人，并且已经远远超出了人类的抵抗力或控制机制。每一个这样的事故都提供了重要的教训或经验可供学习。幸运的是，一些灾害管理方法和技术进步有助于获得明确的肯定性知识和分析，减轻对人类生活和结构的影响。本文调查了管理森林火灾的现有方法。我们专注于森林火灾的特定方面，例如：火灾定位、火灾传播模型、受害者定位、受害者健康评估以及与确保受害者安全相关的后勤。对管理森林火灾的最新工作进行了全面讨论。最后，这项调查强调了处理森林火灾灾害管理系统方面的开放挑战和研究趋势。
