      Hi, we are in the middle of a historic fire season in California, US. Over 1.5M acres are in active fire areas now, including several national parks.

      Yet, the app does not accurately reflect fires that have been active for over 20 days. Several significant fires are missing. Not sure why, but please check your sources. In California multiple agencies report and track different fire Incidents. Please be sure to include all.

      Best

        Hello @emotomoto, this layer is designed for general overview of large fire events, not for real-time monitoring because false-positive records can occur as well as unreported fires.
