Algerian forest fires dataset

The first Algerian forest fires dataset consist of data on forest fires occurrence in Algeria related to meteorological observations and the fire weather indices. Our dataset includes mainly the daily meteorological observations and the Fire Weather Index (FWI) system components. Given the lack of publically available datasets on data on forest fires occurrence in Algeria we have created this one to study the feasibility of the appliance of machine learning algorithms as models for forest fires prediction in the context of Algeria. This dataset is valuable for researchers working on forest fires forecasting and monitoring systems in Algeria and also over the word, in particular the Mediterranean countries that have similar climate. This dataset is publically available in several repositories for research. It was elaborated in 2018 and first donated to the UCI online repository on October 2019.
