The paper presents a new method for constructing a soft gray-fuzzy model of a rapid destructive process using remote sensing by a group of unmanned aerial vehicles on the example of a forest fire. The proposed approach allows obtaining a three-dimensional spatiotemporal model of the fire front spreading, the movement of which reflects the dynamics of the process. To overcome the uncertainty of observations caused by the influence of wind, smoke, turbulence and vibrations, obstacles, curvatures and distortions, a complex uncertainty model was constructed, based on the joint use of fuzzy and soft sets as well as “gray” numbers. To organize remote sensing by a group of unmanned aerial vehicles, a spatial model was developed based on the hierarchical structure of voxels that provide areas of three-dimensional space for comparing images from different positions, and a recursive octotree model, which allows resolving the contradiction between the accuracy of observations and the speed of model construction. A set of possible voxel states is determined, their classification is proposed, a method for calculating a three- dimensional observation vector is developed, represented by an array of confidence vectors, with the help of which the grey-fuzzy state of voxels is determined, which allows combining observations from different observers and sequentially refining them. The development of a rapid destructive process is represented by a soft grey-fuzzy set of voxels, which are attributed to a certain state at a certain moment, which allows determining the convincing, uncertain, suspicious and negative components of the process model, while the convincing component represents the stable core of the fire front, the uncertain component – its variable caused by the uncertainty of observations, the negative component – the space not involved in the development of the process.The incompleteness of observations is modeled using the suspicious component. The proposed method allows reproducing rapid spatially distributed destructive processes of different classes, smoothing out the effects of distortions and noise and providing acceptable performance.
