Latvia wildfires — FAQ
Is this Latvia fire map live?
It shows the newest satellite mapping available — EFFIS (the European Forest Fire Information System) re-maps fires several times a day, and we check it every few minutes. Each flame marks the centre of a satellite-detected burn area, not a live fire's edge. For emergencies, call 112.
Why don't the fires have names?
EFFIS maps fires from satellite imagery rather than agency incident reports, so records carry the nearest settlement and region instead of an official fire name.
What does "hectares mapped" mean?
The burnt area satellites have detected so far for that fire — updated as new passes come in. It is a satellite measurement, not an agency estimate, and fires under a few hectares may not appear.
Can I get FireRisk alerts for a Latvian address?
You can sign up today, but FireRisk alerts still run on official U.S. and Canadian data — EFFIS coverage for Latvia is in active development and will switch on for your address automatically once it's ready.
