Updated 04/05/2025

These data sets are statewide maps of fire scars (burnt areas) as captured in a yearly series by all available Landsat imagery over the period 1986 - 2012. Fire scars are automatically detected and mapped using dense time series of Landsat imagery acquired over the period 1986 - present. In these products, on average, over 80% of fire scars captured in Landsat imagery have been correctly mapped with less than 30% false fire rate.
