[0002] As a destructive natural disaster, wildfires have a significant impact on the global ecology and climate. Wildfire disasters not only threaten human life and property safety, but also cause great damage to the natural environment and ecosystem. For example, wildfires can lead to a reduction in forest area, increased soil erosion, and loss of biodiversity. At the same time, the large amount of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases released during the burning of wildfires will also aggravate the trend of global warming. Wildfire disaster risk assessment is an important means to prevent and mitigate the impact of wildfire disasters. By assessing the risk of wildfire disasters, high-risk areas and potential sources of danger can be identified, providing a scientific basis for the formulation of effective prevention and response measures. At the same time, wildfire disaster risk assessment can also help government departments and all sectors of society understand the severity and potential impact of wildfire disasters, and enhance the public's awareness and ability of disaster prevention and mitigation.

[0003] In the existing technology, traditional methods mainly rely on information from a single source, such as historical fire data and meteorological data. They lack diversified data support and are difficult to deeply explore the complex relationships and laws between data, making it difficult to accurately predict the occurrence and spread of wildfire disasters. Therefore, a wildfire disaster risk assessment method based on geographic and spatiotemporal characteristics is proposed. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to solve the shortcomings of traditional methods that mainly rely on information from a single source such as historical fire data and meteorological data, lack of diversified data support, and difficulty in deeply exploring the complex relationships and laws between data, and thus difficulty in accurately predicting the occurrence and spread trends of wildfire disasters. A wildfire disaster risk assessment method based on geographic and spatiotemporal characteristics is proposed to address the shortcomings of traditional methods that mainly rely on information from a single source such as historical fire data and meteorological data, lack of diversified data support, and difficulty in deeply exploring the complex relationships and laws between data, and thus difficulty in accurately predicting the occurrence and spread trends of wildfire disasters.

[0005] In order to achieve the above object, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions: A wildfire disaster risk assessment method based on geographic spatiotemporal characteristics includes the following steps: S1: Determination and collection of assessment factors: Assessment factors include spatiotemporal characteristics, combustible information, meteorological factors and human activity factors. The spatiotemporal characteristics are obtained by collecting and analyzing historical data on wildfire occurrence, including time (month, season, year) and space (geographic location, terrain, vegetation distribution) characteristics. The combustible information is obtained by remote sensing technology to obtain the type, density and moisture content of surface vegetation and assess the type and quantity of combustibles. The meteorological factors are obtained by meteorological stations, satellite remote sensing or numerical weather forecast models to obtain meteorological data related to wildfire occurrence. The human activity factors are the impact of human activities on wildfire occurrence, such as agricultural activities, forestry operations, camping and picnics, etc. S2: Data preprocessing: cleaning, integrating and standardizing the collected evaluation factors; S3: Feature extraction: Extract key features from the preprocessed spatiotemporal features, combustible information, meteorological elements and human activity factors as inputs to the assessment model; S4: Assessment model construction: Combine GNN and ST-GCN to construct and optimize the wildfire disaster risk assessment model. GNN represents geographic spatial features (such as terrain, vegetation distribution) and human activity factors (such as population distribution, road network) as a graph structure, where nodes represent geographic locations or activity points, and edges represent spatial relationships between geographic locations or associations between activity points. ST-GCN captures both spatial and temporal dependencies. ST-GCN uses GNN to capture spatial relationships and temporal dependencies in time series data, thereby predicting the occurrence and spread of wildfires.
