Resum

This paper aims at obtaining mapping burned area (BDAQ) in the Peninsular Spain for the period 1991-2005 by visual analysis of Landsat and SPOT mosaics (1991-1995, 1995-1999, 1999-2000 and 2000-2005). The effectiveness of this product was tested with data from the National Database of Forest Fires (BDIF) of the Directorate General of Biodiversity, which are offered at 10x10 km grid. For the purpose of the validation only fires over 100 ha were used. The burned area database generated mapped 4286 fires with a total burned area of 1.020.207 ha. The spatial distribution of the area burned by regions showed that Valencia has the highest percentage of area burned (23%), followed by Andalucía and Castilla-León where the area burned was 14%. Galicia had an area burned close to 9%. The more frequent land cover where fire occurrence had taken place were the shrublands and woodland composed by conifers (76.3% of the total area burned) followed by grasslands and deciduous forest (13%). Coverage of forest fires perimeters obtained gave a moderate high correlation respect to data from the BDIF above 73%, with the best coverage for the period 1999-2000, with an overall accuracy of 72% with errors of commission 20.2% and 28% of omission. Coverage for the period 1995-1999 had the lowest overall accuracy close to 25%, with errors of commission and omission of 18.4% and 68.6% respectively.
