SELECTION OF VULNERABLE FIREFIGHTING AREAS USING SPATIAL REGRESSION ANALYSIS MODEL.

In this study, fire incident damage data is considered as a dependent variable of a spatial regression model. First, we investigate previous fire case analysis studies and select the factors that affect firefighting activity. Next, the spatial regression model is estimated by performing spatial regression analysis with these factors as numerical values appropriate for target spatial unit. Finally, we use a spatial regression analysis model to select fire-vulnerable areas. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
