Abstract

Raster Forge is a Python library and graphical user interface for raster data manipulation and analysis. The tool is focused on remote sensing applications, particularly in wildfire management. It allows users to import, visualize, and process raster layers for tasks such as image compositing or topographical analysis. For wildfire management, it generates fuel maps using predefined models. Its impact extends from disaster management to hydrological modeling, agriculture, and environmental monitoring. Raster Forge can be a valuable asset for geoscientists and researchers who rely on raster data analysis, enhancing geospatial data processing and visualization across various disciplines.
