Forest fres, which threaten millions of hectares of forest area yearly, destroy these precious resources. This study aims to design a deep learning model with high accuracy to intervene in forest fres at an early stage. A stacked-based ensemble learning model is proposed for fre detection from forest landscape images in this context. This model ofers high test accuracies of 97.37%, 95.79%, and 95.79% with hold-out validation, fvefold cross-validation, and tenfold cross-validation experiments, respectively. The artifcial intelligence model developed in this study could be used in real-time systems run on unmanned aerial vehicles to prevent potential disasters in forest areas.
