After successfully mapping annual land cover dynamics (Landy), since 2023 Mapbiomas Indonesia has been mapping burned land through Mapbiomas Fire.
Burned land is mapped through analyses of Landsat 8 satellite imagery using Google Earth Engine computation technology integrated with deep learning.
Mapbiomas Fire’s current land fire maps, referred to as Collection 1.0, constitute annual land fire maps for the years 2013 to 2023. Moving forward, in addition to adding annual burned land maps back to 2000 and for forthcoming years, Mapbiomas Indonesia is also planning to create monthly land fire maps, particularly for peak fire months.
