EU Fires

Fire — Real-Time Wildfire Monitoring Fire brings live wildfire monitoring to your fingertips using NASA satellite data, the Copernicus EFFIS European feed, and Portuguese Civil Protection sources. Stay informed about active fires across Europe, receive instant push alerts when a wildfire is detected near you, and contribute on-the-ground reports to help your community. REAL-TIME SATELLITE DATA Live fire detection from NASA FIRMS (Fire Information for Resource Management System) VIIRS sensors on NOAA-20 and Suomi-NPP satellites Updates within 3 hours of satellite observation Color-coded fire intensity indicators (Low, Moderate, High, Extreme) PORTUGUESE CIVIL PROTECTION Live fire data from Proteção Civil via Fogos.pt Per-incident detail: firefighters, vehicles, aircraft deployed Fire status tracking from first alert to resolution Resource-history charts showing response progression Automatically activates when you're in Portugal PAN-EUROPEAN PUSH ALERTS Server-driven push notifications anywhere in Europe — no need to keep the app running Inside Portugal: alerts powered by the ANEPC / ProCiv official feed Elsewhere in Europe: alerts powered by Copernicus EFFIS Country name and source attribution in every push Configurable alert radius (5–200 km), defaults to 15 km Persistence guard: a satellite detection must be confirmed across two consecutive polls before a push is sent — fewer false positives CITIZEN REPORTS Spotted a fire on the ground?
