A new method is proposed and applied to determine areas at risk of forest fires produced by the combination of three territorial variables: the spatial localization of the fires, the road network, and areas with an urban–wildland interface. An area in central Chile, at latitude 33°S, was used as a case study in which variables were analyzed using fuzzy logic. As a result, irregular areas were identified...
