As noted by brad quayle program lead for the disturbance assessment.
Satellite fire detection canada.
Forest service uses firms data as an integral component of its active fire mapping program which provides near real time detection and characterization of wildland fire conditions in a geospatial context for the continental united states alaska hawaii and canada.
Satellite fire detection data displayed on these maps are provided by the usda forest service geospatial technology and applications center nasa goddard space flight center direct readout laboratory nasa modis rapid repsonse system noaa nesdis satellite analysis branch univeristy of wisconsin space science and engineering center and the.
Fire detections modis 1km viirs 375m and 750m avhrr 1km and goes 4km fire detections by time date of occurrence within the last 6 12 and 24 hours and the 6 days previous to the last 24 hour period.
Goes active fire detection data.
The data they provide is for california only.
We first saw smoke from the sky the chance to use artificial intelligence plus a satellite s vantage point to equip remote firefighters with better.
The modis and viirs thermal layers are created from the modis satellite detection system and represents hot spots that could be potential fire locations in the last 24 hour period at a horizontal resolution of 1 km and temporal resolution of 1 to 2 days.
With the recent democratization of satellite data we saw huge potential.
Artificial intelligence for high volume satellite data we are tanka.
There are six fire detection satellite platforms used for our map.
Fire detection is conducted primarily by the 1 km resolution channels at 4 µm and 11 µm which.
Conus imaging sector and 10min observations over the entire western hemisphere full disk imaging sector with two satellites positioned at 75 2 o w goes 16 launched on november 2016 and 137 2 o w goes 17 launched on march 2018.
Noaa s geostationary operational environmental satellite goes provides 5min observations over the conterminous u s.
Goes 16 goes 17 modis and viiirs.
Fire data is available for download or can be viewed through a map interface.
Satellite fire detection alerts every 5 15 min.
For low cost sensor data a correction equation is also applied to mitigate bias in the sensor data.
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.
They provide continuous.
The fire and smoke map shows fine particulate 2 5 micron pm 2 5 pollution data obtained from air quality monitors and sensors information is shown on both the epa s air quality index scale using the nowcast aqi algorithm and also as hourly pm 2 5 concentration values.
