Dates of Data:
7/17/20 to 9/2/20
Summary:
The
Fire Information for Resource Management System (FIRMS) distributes
Near Real-Time (NRT) active fire data within 3 hours of satellite
overpass from both the MODIS and the VIIRS. This data can provide information about where new fires may have formed
and how they evolve during their life cycle.
Suggested Use:
FIRMS Active
Fire Points can be used to detect new hot spots and fires, and to
monitor the progression of fires throughout their life cycle
Satellite/Sensor:
Suomi-NPP (VIIRS)
Aqua and Terra (MODIS)
NOAA 20 (VIIRS)
Resolution:
VIIRS: 375m
MODIS: 1km
