Emergency? Do not use Fire Radar to report or assess an emergency. Call 999. Coverage is not comprehensive: Fire Radar can only show incidents made available through the public sources used by each fire and rescue service. Severity is estimated unless the source states otherwise. Wind and satellite observations are context, not a smoke-plume, spread or evacuation forecast.

Satellite thermal anomalies can appear outside Fire Radar's current fire-service coverage and are not confirmed fire incidents by themselves.

What are NASA FIRMS and VIIRS?

NASA FIRMS means Fire Information for Resource Management System. It distributes satellite observations of active fires and other thermal anomalies. VIIRS means Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite, a satellite instrument used by FIRMS that can detect heat signatures at roughly 375 m pixel resolution.

A FIRMS marker is not automatically a confirmed fire. Fire Radar cross-references the observation against official fire-service incidents and tracks repeated unmatched locations to reduce persistent non-fire clutter.
