Northern and Central Africa - VIIRS Active Fire Detections
Near-real-time active fire and thermal anomaly detections from NASA's [Fire Information for Resource Management System (FIRMS)](https://firms.modaps.eosdis.nasa.gov/active_fire/) covering **Northern and Central Africa**, derived from the **VIIRS** sensor family (Suomi-NPP since 2011, NOAA-20 since 2017, NOAA-21 since 2022). Each resource is an external link directly to a NASA-hosted file. The files are continuously updated as new satellite overpasses are processed (typically within 3 hours of acquisition). **Formats:** SHP, KML, CSV **Time windows:** Last 24h, 48h, 7d
