Overview
FireWatch is a next-generation wildfire risk intelligence, detection and monitoring service. Accessible via API it combines Earth Observation feeds from NASA's MODIS and VIIRS satellites, weather forecasting, environmental data and historical wildfire records into a single, high-speed solution.
Near real-time updates enable accurate wildfire prediction, detection, tracking, and damage assessment, empowering insurers, emergency responders, supply chain managers, and policymakers to act decisively, mitigating risk and reducing financial loss.
FireWatch pinpoints wildfire locations across Southern Europe and California. The FireWatch service is updated twice daily and is deployed as a REST API that is designed to be queried programmatically. Non-developers also have access to the FireWatch API using the Query Page. For other delivery schedules and geographic areas contact the vendor.
