Description
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

Build trust over time: 10-tier reputation ladder from Civilian to Mythic, earned by submitting accurate reports
FIRE SPREAD FORECAST
Predict how fires may spread using a scientific elliptical fire spread model
Based on Anderson (1983) and Alexander (1985) wildfire research
Real-time wind, humidity and soil-moisture data from Open-Meteo
Time-stepped predictions at 1, 3 and 6 hours
LIVE WIND MAP
Wind direction and speed overlay across the visible map
Color-coded arrows from blue (calm) to red (strong wind)
Auto-refreshes as you pan and zoom
Powered by Open-Meteo real-time weather data
INTERACTIVE MAP
Standard, satellite and NASA VIIRS imagery views
See smoke plumes and burn scars on true-color satellite imagery
Fire Weather Index overlay from Copernicus EFFIS — the official 6-class danger scale
Burnt-area overlay highlighting recently-burnt terrain
IPMA daily fire-risk map (Portugal)
Built-in legend in Settings explains every map control
STATISTICS
Country picker auto-presets to your location
Active fires breakdown by country (FIRMS, Europe-wide)
Detailed Portugal stats: severity, deployed resources, resources over time, fire types, status, top districts
Intensity distribution and satellite-detection analytics
PRIVACY FIRST
No account required to view fires or receive alerts
Sign-in is optional and only needed to submit citizen reports
Your location only leaves the device when push alerts are enabled (so the server knows what radius to match)
No third-party tracking or analytics
