PREDIKSI PENYEBARAN API PADA LAHAN GAMBUT DENGAN METODE CELLULAR AUTOMATION
The largest peatlands, reaching 21 million hectares, are found in Sumatra,
Kalimantan and Papua. Peatland is an area of land composed of decomposed soil.
Forest and land fires are natural disasters that often occur in Indonesia. Degraded
peat, which dries out easily during the dry season, is the main trigger factor for
peat fires. Large-scale clearing of peatlands by making channels/ditches also
increases the risk of fires during the dry season. Fires in peat lands/forests are very
difficult to control compared to fires that occur in areas where there is no peat.
The spread of fire in peatlands (ground fire) is difficult to know, so the fire can
spread to deeper areas or spread to further locations without being visible from the
surface. Based on the problems above, predicting the spread of fire on peatlands is
necessary to prevent and overcome the spread of forest and land fires which often
occur, especially on peatlands where the spread of fire is not visible (ground fire).
Where the cellular automata model is used is to be able to determine the spread of
fire in peatlands where the fire is not visible (ground fire).
