Abstract
Investigación Operativa para la Extinción de Incendios Forestales: El Team Orienteering Problem con Ventanas de Tiempo Variables. La motivación para desarrollar este trabajo surge de la creciente preocupación con respecto a los incendios forestales. El cambio climático, los cambios de uso del suelo y el abandono de las áreas rurales propician eventos cada vez más peligrosos y devastadores. Tradicionalmente, las decisiones tanto tácticas como operativas para la extinción de incendios forestales se han venido tomando basadas en la experiencia de los expertos. Sin embargo, la Investigación Operativa (IO) se planteó ya en el siglo pasado como una potente herramienta para ayudar en la toma de decisiones. Ésta es especialmente de utilidad en contextos como la extinción de incendios forestales, donde se deben tomar decisiones de manera rápida, dada la urgencia de este tipo de situaciones...
This document summarizes the methodology, results and conclusions of the thesis titled: Operational Research for Wildfire Suppression: The Team Orienteering Problem with Variable Time Windows. The motivation for developing this work lies in the increasing concern regarding wildfires. Climate change, the change of the land use, and the abandonment of rural areas foster more dangerous and devastating events. Traditionally, decision making regarding operational and tactical movements during the response phase of a wildfire were based on practitioners’ expertise. However, Operational Research (OR) has long been pointed out as a powerful tool to help in decision making processes. OR is specially useful in contexts such as wildfire suppression, in which decisions must be quick, given the urgency of the situation....
