The ForestSphere project aims to develop a Digital Twin for forest management
Recognising its socioeconomic and ecological importance. Forests contribute significantly to the European Union's GDP and serve as major carbon sinks. However, forest fires pose a substantial threat to forests, leading to environmental damage, loss of life, and economic losses.
Despite advances in Digital Twin technology across various sectors, the current literature has limited exploration of its applications in forest management, particularly in wildfire prediction.
