Abstract	Objectives: The study analyzed the digital measures in forest fire management in Morocco and the United States, comparing of the fire management methods in each country. The goal was to enhance the policies and strategies used in Morocco and to further integrate the Moroccan approach with the American experience. Methods: The study relied on the descriptive-analytical approach to describe the digital measures adopted in both Morocco and the United States for extinguishing forest fires. The comparative approach was also used to compare the experiences of both countries in combating forest fires and explore how Morocco can benefit from American expertise. Results: The study results indicate that both Morocco and the United States use digital technology for early detection of forest fires. However, Morocco faces challenges such as funding shortages, inadequate technical infrastructure, and the need for firefighter training. Meanwhile, the U.S. employs advanced technologies, including satellites, drones, and ground-based thermal sensors, and benefits from integrated information management systems and artificial intelligence. Despite this, the U.S. also encounters challenges related to coordinating efforts among different agencies. In comparison, the U.S. has significantly higher levels of funding and technical support, allowing for the use of more advanced technologies. Therefore, Morocco could benefit from the American experience in several ways, including improving technical infrastructure, training firefighting teams, using integrated information management systems, and exchanging expertise and knowledge.. Conclusions: These results reflect the importance of digital technology in enhancing the effectiveness of forest fire response and highlight Morocco's potential to benefit from the United States' experience to address this environmental issue more effectively.
