Burnt Areas in Central Africa
Listed in NASA Earthdata CMR
The Fire Product: Burnt Areas in Central Africa was part of the International Geosphere-Biosphere Programme Data and Information System (IGBP-DIS) Regional Satellite Fire Data Compilation CD-ROM.
Description
Three hundred and ten Along Track Scanning Radiometer (ATSR-1) data over Central Africa were used to detect areas affected by burning during the 1994-1995 dry season. An algorithm was developed to detect areas where over 50% of the pixel had burnt.
The general features of the data show the movement of burnt areas south across Central Africa as the dry season progresses. The data set provided consists of a raster image of Central Africa. Each value in the raster image relates a point where burnt areas were detected within the period 15 October 1994 to 10 March 1995.
