FireFringe Status

We want to make the world a safer place, so we put the power of 21st Century wildfire detection in the palm of your hand. • We use MODIS and VIIRS satellites to spot, map, and track blazing wildfires around the world. • We use two NRCAN layers to visualize detected fire and fire perimeters across Canada. • Control the sensitivity of MODIS and VIIRS blazing fire detection filters yourself. • We update blazing fire detection around the world twice a day to keep you aware and safe. • Check detections from previous months – handy for planning your next wilderness hike or canoe trip. • Not sure you have the latest detections in app?  Share blazing fire detections on social media, text message, or email. • Want to report a fire?  Use the search feature to check for blazing fires. • Worried about your campsite?  Use our GPS tool, see your position and spot any blazing fires nearby. • Need to raise the alarm?  You can update the detections on demand. • Worried about friends, family, or property in a remote location?  Wildfires are becoming bigger, more intense, more destructive, and more frequent.  We show you the location of each blazing fire detection and NRCAN perimeter.
