Monitoring Forest Fires in South Sumatra
With Singapore, Malaysia and Indonesia regularly suffering dangerous atmospheric pollution caused by illegal forest and land fires in Indonesia, SETAPAK partners have been using unmanned aerial vehicles to detect and monitor forest and peatland fires. Their objectives are to improve land management monitoring and law enforcement by reporting infractions and advocating for improved government regulation and response.
