This work is devoted to the consideration of the problems of reducing forest resources, which is largely associated with fires that occur in hard-to-reach areas and in areas with increased recreational load. In this regard, the creation of an effective fire detection system using various types of monitoring – ground, aviation, and space – is of particular relevance and importance. An important monitoring task is not only monitoring the fire situation, but also assessing the effects of fires. To determine the location of forest fires on the lands of the forest fund and other categories of lands, as well as to collect and store data, the Avialesohrana Federal State Budgetary Institution uses remote monitoring of the ISDM-Rosleskhoz system, which helps to quickly detect fires using satellites, record them, and compile information on foci and give them an assessment. According to the ISDM-Rosleskhoz data, a comparative analysis of the dynamics of the number of forest fires in the regions of the Russian Federation for 2017-2019 was carried out, as well as an analysis of the area of forest land covered by fires in 2015-2019, the results of which revealed a growing trend in the number of fires and their increase area. As a result, it was concluded that it is necessary to improve the system of remote monitoring of forest fires with the aim of preventing, timely detecting and preventing spread.
