*Why should I enter my email address?
We organize all your subscriptions by your email address. If we find your email address in our database, we will show your personal information and any existing subscriptions automatically in the next steps. In case your email address is not in our database, you can add your information as a new subscriber. You can then proceed to create new subscriptions. [ Hide this text ]

About Subscriptions...
You can subscribe to receive daily emails notifying you of fires in or around your area-of-interest by:
1. Using a dynamic, interactive map
2. Choosing a country or protected area, with buffer options of 5, 10, or 15 Kilometers
Also, you can customize your email alert by choosing to receive:
1. An image with fires and text of detected fire locations (View Sample)
2. Just the fire locations text, with a link to the image (View Sample)
Further, you can also choose to receive a Comma-Separated Text File (CSV) containing all the detected fire points. You can import this file into your desktop GIS for further analyses.
All email alerts include the geographic coordinates of pixels flagged as containing one or more fires, the time and date of data satellite acquisition and a confidence value.
