This special session invites contributions that<br>showcase the use of remote sensing to support all stages of wildfire monitoring and<br>management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><br>We welcome studies employing passive or active sensors-such as optical, thermal,<br>microwave, SAR, and LiDAR-across various platforms, including satellite, airborne, and UAV<br>systems. Particular interest is given to methodologies that demonstrate scalability,<br>repeatability, and potential for operational integration; we seek submissions focused on<br>cutting-edge Artificial Intelligence (AI) and machine learning workflows, algorithm<br>development, multi-sensor data fusion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><br>Emphasis is placed on geoinformatics and remote sensing applications that support fire<br>severity and regime analysis, and their connections with climate change and the occurrence<br>of extreme fire weather conditions.
