Cet ouvrage en évalue les conséquences sur l'écosystème forestier et sur la conservation de la biodiversité. Il est essentiel d'organiser la cohabitation entre l'homme et l'aléa incendie de forêts par l'intermédiaire d'outils d'aménagement du territoire à différentes échelles géographiques. Cela constitue la prévention du risque. Une fois l'incendie déclaré, il est alors nécessaire de déployer un ensemble de méthodes et outils technologiques et d'aide à la décision permettant de faire face à l'incendie et d'en limiter les conséquences. C'est le domaine de la prévision et de l'opération. Incendies de forêts propose des pistes organisationnelles, méthodologiques et technologiques pour la gestion territoriale de ce risque et de ses crises.
