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.
