Welcome to the spotFIRE app!

The spotFIRE application is a citizen science initiative aimed at gathering data on forest fuel and forest fires to reduce forest fire risk and protect settlements and human lifes from the threat of forest fires.

The spotFIRE App consists of two core features: Reporting vegetation fires and collecting forest fuel data.

Report forest fire events

Users can report vegetation fires, including burnt area, fire causes and damage assessments, facilitating a comprehensive understanding of the consequences of forest fires.

Collect forest fuel data

Help science by collecting data on forest fuels such as vegetation cover or the type of surface fuel.
