Burnt Area Daily NRT Incremental Product - MODIS - Europe

The product is automatically derived from Aqua/Terra (MODIS) satellite imagery in near-real time. It is an incremental product, meaning that the retrieved results are updated as soon as new input data becomes available over a timespan of ten days. Besides the fire perimeter and detection time, each feature contains information about the severity of the burning.

Explanation: See the referenced specification

Pass: Yes

Statement: The product is based on mid resolution, optical data from the Aqua/Terra MODIS sensor level 1 NRT product. It utilizes information from the red and near-infrared domain, in combination with thermal anomaly data from the MODIS and VIIRS sensors

Description: Burnt Area Daily NRT Processing:

Processing:

The burnt area segmentation method is based on the morphological snakes algorithm in combination with a region growing approach. A differential NDVI mosaic is used as the basis for the segmentation.

The methodology is described here: https://www.mdpi.com/2072-4292/12/13/2162/html .

An application of the methodology is found here: https://www.mdpi.com/2072-4292/13/24/4975/html

Quality Assurance:

The product has been thoroughly tested against reference datasets provided by NASA, ESA and the Joint Research Center of the European Union

(JRC). The results of the inter-comparison can be found in the following publication:
