Map Of World Fires

Map Of World Fires. Track global wildfires in real-time with FireMap, using data from NASA FIRMS, EFFIS, and national fire agencies The fire maps show the locations of actively burning fires around the world on a monthly basis, based on observations from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on NASA's Terra satellite

The Fire Information for Resource Management System (FIRMS) provides access, with minimal delay, to satellite imagery, active fire/hotspots, and related products to identify the location, extent, and intensity of wildfire activity NASA | LANCE | Fire Information for Resource Management System provides near real-time active fire data from MODIS and VIIRS to meet the needs of firefighters, scientists and users interested in monitoring fires

Color ranges from red where the fire count is low to yellow where number of fires is large. NASA | LANCE | Fire Information for Resource Management System provides near real-time active fire data from MODIS and VIIRS to meet the needs of firefighters, scientists and users interested in monitoring fires The colors are based on a count of the number (not size) of fires observed within a 1,000-square-kilometer area.
