15 E F F I S N e w D e v e l p m e n t s New developments: Automatic report for fire risk assesment. Thermal anomalies for potential burnt area mapping. Sentinel 2 automatic fire severity mapping based on fire active detection. Forest fire spread prediction workflow

16 T i m e r e s p o n s e Sources: MODIS TERRA/AQUA: Thermal anomalies 4 times per day. 1km spatial resolution. 2 images per day, morning and afternoon. 250m spatial resolution. Clouds could affect to the mapping. NPP/Suomi VIIRS: Thermal anomalies 1 times per day. 375m spatial resolution. Sentinel 2: Pass every 2 to 10 days. 10m resoution. Done for all the detected fires by EFFIS.

17 T i m e l i n e Day 1 Day 2 Day 3 Day 4 Day 5 Day 6 Day 7 Fire starts Fire ends Time MODIS Image 250m: Mapped if there is no high percentage of cloud cover. 2 times per day 4 potential perimeters are mapped

18 T i m e l i n e Day 1 Day 2 Day 3 Day 4 Day 5 Day 6 Day 7 Fire starts Fire ends Time MODIS+VIIRS Thermal anomalies. Low latency processing from sources 3h. The burnt area update is done more than 4 times per day. Automatic procedure, no human validation.

19 T i m e l i n e Day 1 Day 2 Day 3 Day 4 Day 5 Day 6 Day 7 Fire starts Fire ends Time Sentinel 2: 10m fire mapping. However, low update frequency. From 2 to 10 days. Fire severity is computed. Automatic detection and mapping, no human validated.
