Aksu: Drone "rangers" are on duty to build a forest "firewall"
Tianshan Net News (reported by reporter Cao Hua correspondent Liang Tingxue) "The route has been set, and the drones are all normal and can take off..." On September 20, with the commander's order, two multi-rotor drones They took off successively, and started to patrol the forest area of Xinjiang Tomur Peak National Nature Reserve at an altitude of 1900 meters according to the preset route. On September 20, the drone was launched to patrol the forest area. Provided by the Forestry and Grassland Bureau of Aksu Prefecture Entering September, all parts of the Aksu region have entered the forest and grassland fire prevention period in autumn and winter. Due to the forest production and agricultural autumn harvest season, personnel activities such as production and operation, construction operations, and mountain tourism in the forest and pastoral areas are increasing. , the fire danger level of forest and grassland has also gradually increased. In order to do a good job in forest and grassland fire prevention in autumn and winter, the Forestry and Grassland Bureau of Aksu Prefecture declared and implemented the 2022 central financial forestry reform and development fund (forest and grassland aviation fire protection) project, invested 2.5 million yuan in project funds, and patrolled Keke through drone aviation. The Yalin District and the forest area of the Tomur Peak National Nature Reserve in Xinjiang have an early warning and monitoring coverage of 3.0555 million mu. It is planned to complete 1241 hours of patrol flight and a patrol period of 120 days, which will effectively make up for the ground patrol and video surveillance patrol. Early warning and monitoring of blind areas, improve the ability of forest and grass disaster prevention and mitigation, and ensure early detection and early disposal of fires. It is understood that the UAV performing the aerial patrol mission is also equipped with a laser rangefinder and a thermal imaging camera, which can measure the target distance, give the latitude and longitude coordinates, and guide the ground personnel to quickly reach the location. The thermal imaging camera can find Visible light equipment and the initial fire or dark fire that cannot be detected by the naked eye, and the temperature of the fire field is measured to provide a decision basis for the on-site commander. The drone captured the activity of the sheep. The UAV patrol provided by the Forestry and Grassland Bureau of Aksu Region is a powerful tool for forest and grassland fire prevention. Due to its advantages of long battery life, real-time image transmission, detection of high-risk areas, low cost, and flexibility, UAVs have been used in forest fires in recent years. It has been widely used in monitoring, prevention, rescue and post-disaster assessment. It is understood that in recent years, the Aksu region has continuously strengthened the construction of forest and grassland fire warning and response systems, and built a three-dimensional comprehensive early warning and monitoring system integrating "land patrol + network patrol + air patrol", and gradually realized the forest and grassland fire control system and governance Capability modernization. The Aksu area has not had any major forest and grassland fires for 30 consecutive years, which has effectively guaranteed the safety of people's lives, property and ecological security.
