Where this data comes from

Perimeters come from EFFIS (Copernicus, CC BY 4.0) and municipal boundaries from geoBoundaries/ISTAT, National Institute of Statistics (Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 License). The area per municipality is computed by WorldFires by crossing both. The forecast is from Open-Meteo (CC BY 4.0).
