Each dot is a thermal anomaly detected from orbit. Tap a dot for radiative power and the satellite pass time.

Updated

Satellites pass over a given point a few times a day, so a fire may appear with a delay. Use this to assess the situation — it does not replace official bulletins from national civil protection. Source: NASA FIRMS.
