Forest ecology focuses on the structure, functions, and ecosystem services of forests, which is crucial for understanding the impacts of forest fires on these systems. Forest fires not only have a negative impact on forests but also threaten their sustainability. Therefore, when a forest fire occurs, resources must be planned effectively. By improving this planning, the negative effects can be mitigated. Consequently, such planning is crucial if there is limited data on the fire history of the area. This study aims to provide a systematic literature review by examining research on wildfire resource optimization. For this purpose, a systematic review of 92 selected articles from the Web of Science database has been presented. These studies were thoroughly examined, and those not related to the topic were excluded. In this context, a systematic literature review on wildfire resource optimization has been conducted for the first time.
