OzFuel (Australian Fuel Monitoring from Space) is a bushfire mitigation satellite mission designed at ANU to deliver information on the flammability of Eucalypts forest on the support of fire risk monitoring, prediction, preparation, response and resilience. In this project, you will be working with a spectral library for Eucalypts to verify the spectral bands that are more sensitive to variations in fuel loads (i.e. lignin and cellulose), fuel moisture content, and oil contents. These components are critical determinants of fuel flammability and, therefore, will help narrow down the preliminary spectral specification of OzFuel indicated in the Pre-Phase A OzFuel end-user preliminary requirements document. The data will also be used to demonstrate OzFuel capability in comparison with other existing optical sensors. We will achieve this by converting the measured full spectra to different sensors bands using the sensor-specific spectral response functions. We can tailor the project to match your skills and interests.
