Special Uses/ Water Intake Points Map

Forest Fire Plan Of Action Municipality Of Agia Paraskevi

The high risk areas:

• Are usually found near the city.

• Are found within the limits of special uses

areas (Democritus, American College), so they

are protected.

• Are covered by the current street network.

Conclusion

Forest Fire Plan Of Action Municipality Of Agia Paraskevi

Α) The largest part of the area of interest is

visible from the existing fire lookout stations and

is situated in protected zones (Democritus,

military camp).

Only specific areas are not visible.

The construction of another fire lookout station

in the northwestern side would provide almost

full visibility.

Β) The construction of a weather station or the

use of an existing one (inside Democritus) would

help fulfill the plan of action. In the “risk of a

forest fire occurring” map we would have the

weather factor being counted as well.

Γ) A cooperation is required with the

neighbouring municipalities around Imittos, so

as to create a complete GIS.
