Wildfires in Indonesia today

There are 100 probable fires in Indonesia right now: 1,847 heat detections by satellite in the last 24 hours, grouped by proximity. The most intense one is near Seruyan (6,560 MW). Its fire page has been tracking it since 9 August 2026.

A heat detection is not a confirmed fire: farm burning and industry also produce them, and clouds or smoke can hide a fire.

Where this data comes from

Hotspots from the VIIRS sensors on Suomi-NPP, NOAA-20 and NOAA-21 (NASA FIRMS), 375 m pixels and about six passes a day between the three. They are grouped into probable fires when neighbouring hotspots exist; agricultural burning or an industrial chimney also show on the map, which is why small groups are left out of the list. A hotspot is a thermal detection, not a confirmed fire: in an emergency call your local emergency number.
