Hide likely industrial sources

Always show individual points, never cluster

Keeps every hotspot visible as its own dot, even zoomed far out with many detections — this can look cluttered and render more markers.

Minimum FRP: 10 MW

Minimum detections: 2

These defaults (FRP of at least 10 MW, seen on 2 or more satellite passes) show hotspots that are more likely to be a real, ongoing wildfire. This is a rule of thumb, not a guarantee — always follow local authorities. Lower the sliders to see every detection, including single, unconfirmed readings.

No hotspots match the current filters.

Read the map with context

1

Points are heat detections. Satellites detect heat from above; a point is not a confirmed wildfire report.

2

Signals add context. Time, FRP, repeated detections and multiple satellites help you investigate what may be happening.

3

Interpret, then verify. Combine signals and check local authorities. In an emergency, call 112.
