Forest fires are one of the most serious natural disasters that threaten forest resources. The early and accurate identification of forest fires is crucial for reducing losses. Compared with satellites and sensors, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are widely used in forest fire monitoring tasks due to their flexibility and wide coverage. The key to fire monitoring is to accurately segment the area where the fire is located in the image. However, for early forest fire monitoring, fires captured remotely by UAVs have the characteristics of a small area, irregular contour, and susceptibility to forest cover, making the accurate segmentation of fire areas from images a challenge. This article proposes an FBC-ANet network architecture that integrates boundary enhancement modules and context-aware modules into a lightweight encoder–decoder network. FBC-Anet can extract deep semantic features from images and enhance shallow edge features, thereby achieving an effective segmentation of forest fire areas in the image. The FBC-ANet model uses an Xception network as the backbone of an encoder to extract features of different scales from images. By transforming the extracted deep semantic features through the CIA module, the model’s feature learning ability for fire pixels is enhanced, making feature extraction more robust. FBC-ANet integrates the decoder into the BEM module to enhance the extraction of shallow edge features in images. The experimental results indicate that the FBC-ANet model has a better segmentation performance for small target forest fires compared to the baseline model. The segmentation accuracy on the dataset FLAME is 92.19%, the F1 score is 90.76%, and the IoU reaches 83.08%. This indicates that the FBC-ANet model can indeed extract more valuable features related to fire in the image, thereby better segmenting the fire area from the image.
