Abstract

This paper discusses the application of UAV remote sensing technology based on Retinex theory algorithm in forest fire monitoring. Firstly, the importance of forest fire detection and the limitation of traditional monitoring methods are introduced. Secondly, the advantages of UAV remote sensing technology are explained, including flexibility, efficiency and accuracy. Retinex theory algorithm is analyzed in detail in enhancing image quality, solving complex illumination processing, color vector and other core problems. The effectiveness and accuracy of this technology combination in forest fire monitoring are demonstrated through practical cases and experimental data. Finally, the future development direction and prospect of this technology are prospected.
