World Wildfires Map. See current wildfires and wildfire perimeters near you using the Map of Fire Wildfire Map. Globally, fire plays a major role in Earth's carbon cycle by releasing carbon into the air, and by consuming trees that would otherwise absorb carbon from the air during photosynthesis

With all this, we can know in a fairly objective way the approximate place where apoint of fire and the magnitude of it. It is powered by FireDB, which enhances the data from NASA's Fire Information for Resource Management System (FIRMS) with authoritative fire points sourced from agencies in the U.S.
Specifically, satellites capture wildfires as they happen and stream this information in active fire maps Each colored dot indicates a location where MODIS detected at least one fire during the compositing period The NASA earth data fire map accumulates the locations of fires detected by moderate-resolution imaging spectroradiometer (MODIS) on board the Terra and Aqua satellites over a 10-day period
