Global fire hot spots from 1996 to 2010, satellite map. These hot spots (including wild fires) were detected by two ESA satellites: ERS-2's Along Track Scanning Radiometer (ATSR-2) and Envisat's Advanced Along Track Scanning Radiometer (AATSR). The date period covered was July 1996 to August 2010. These radiometers measure thermal infrared radiation to take the temperature of Earth's land surfaces. Temperatures exceeding 38.85 degrees Celsius are classified as a fire. | |
